[IGSTK-Developers] FW: [IGSTK-Users] PercuNav - Commerical prodcut

[Kevin Cleary]

Yes, Traxtal is a company that we used to work with and still have some
contacts there. This system is very similar to the one we are building with
IGSTK and a good example system to look at. I saw it at the Interventional
Radiology meeting in Seattle at the end of March.

Subject: [IGSTK-Users] PercuNav - Commerical prodcut

I came across this commercial product that provides advanced navigation 
solutions
for interventional radiologists for performing image-guided percutaneous 
diagnostic and
therapeutic procedures, such as biopsies and radio-frequency ablations

http://www.traxtal.com/percunav.html

On the right most column, they have a list of features of the product.
It was very interesting to see that some of the features are similar to our
four view needle biopsy tracking example application.

The feature that caught my eyes the most was the " wizard driven user 
interface that
leads you through the workflow" which will be one of the main development
tasks in the current phase of IGSTK.
