WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Dr. Malenka Bissell,
University of Leeds
The Caas analysis tool makes 4D Flow MRI analysis quick and straight forward. The valve tracking option is intuitive. Its flexibility allows analysis of even the most complex congenital heart disease.
Dr. Jérémy Rabineau
Université Libre de Bruxelles, BelgiumAt ULB – together with ESA, NASA and the DLR, we study the cardiovascular deconditioning induced by spaceflights. The comprehensible workflows of Caas MR solutions 4D flow helps us to understand arterial and intra-cardiac flow in volunteers and astronauts/cosmonauts.
