Cedars-Sinai Cardiac Suite QGS^TM + QPS

all in one application

QUAD, the Quantitative Diagnostic Software Group, is the new home of Cedars-Sinai Cardiac Suite.

Reconstruct & motion-correct data without leaving QGS^TM + QPS

Reconstruct and motion-correct any of the raw datasets directly within QGS+QPS with our built-in FBP and iterative reconstruction. Have you used a Pegasys or JetStream system before? You'll feel right at home with our familiar interface--and if you haven't, you'll find out how easy to use it is.

Powerful Data Management tools

all in one application

Search through 100,000 studies in an instant. Reporting for MPI, planar and SPECT MUGA, and CT Angiography.

Tracer Kinetics & Absolute Blood Flow

The QPET algorithm for absolute blood flow quantification utilizes a previously-validated model for left ventricular segmentation and contouring developed by our center and applies it to dynamic data to quantify regional myocardial perfusion and absolute regional myocardial blood flow (MBF).

QGS^TM for Function & QPS for Perfusion

The software and algorithms developed by QUAD (formerly AIM) are widely considered to represent the gold standard in nuclear cardiology. You know our software as QGS^TM, AutoQUANT^TM, and AutoSPECT^TM—to name but a few. We have been licensing these applications to companies like GE, Philips, and Siemens for over 20 years. Now they’re available directly from us.

Cardiac Suite

Summary

Quantitative Gated + Perfusion SPECT

This application provides cardiac function and perfusion quantitation using gated and ungated MPI datasets: ED and ES volumes, ejection fraction, and perfusion measures such as SSS/SRS/SDS and TPD. The image data can be viewed in a variety of modes, from selected slices in a 2D view to a rendered 3D surface of the myocardium with parametric maps (perfusion, motion, thickening and regional EF).

QPET - Quantitative PET

The PET Kinetics module provides the calculation of Coronary Flow Reserve (CFR) and Myocardial Blood Flow (MBF). This application also provides automatic segmentation, quantification and analysis of static and gated myocardial perfusion PET, with support for both short axis and transverse datasets.

QBS - Quantitative Blood Pool SPECT

This application provides automatic quantitation of left- and right-ventricular function (ejection fraction, ED and ES volumes, stroke volumes) using gated blood pool SPECT images. It also displays motion polar maps and parametric surfaces.

ARG - Automated Report Generator

The Cedars-Sinai reporting system can substantially improve the workflow in your nuclear cardiology department. Its two components are Automated Report Generator (ARG) and QARG.

AutoRecon

This application offers several automatic processing modules for single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) studies.

MoCo - Motion Correction

This application provides automatic and manual correction of SPECT acquisition artifacts.

CSI

CSI allows you to transfer studies and manages the datasets on your computer. CSI 2017 (going back to version 2013) has a database architecture that provides lightning-fast searching across all your studies. Powerful tagging allows you to organize your data however you'd like without data duplication. CSI still supports pulling data from DICOM Query/Retrieve and FTP servers as well as legacy systems, allowing DICOM cameras and workstations to push data to your computer, and importing data from CDs or other removable media or from a network share. One-click anonymized mode hides patient identification so you can use the software in interactive lectures.
