Optimizing operating procedures and response evaluation criteria in the field of imaging biomarkers
Operational procedures of treatment monitoring significantly differ from diagnostic readings in radiology. One motivation for the development of mint Lesion™ was to provide an optimized software solution for oncological tumor response assessment. mint Lesion™’s working concept reflects dealing with chronological sequences of medical images (e.g. the definition of baseline, follow-ups, lesion targets, and non-targets, and others) and the application of response evaluation criteria (e.g. quantitative assessment and categorization of lesions, response assessment). While focusing on a particular field of application, a maximum flexibility in support of response evaluation criteria and the evaluation and communication of quantitative data are primary aims.
mint Lesion™ provides comprehensive data about the treatment effectiveness of specific imaging biomarkers, and also about the qualities of assessment criteria and operating procedures in quantitative tumor response evaluation. Let mint Lesion™ improve your research work and benefit from its versatile and generic approach to Quantitative Imaging.
Benefits – How can you benefit from using mint Lesion™?
Gain knowledge by comprehensive data analysis capabilities
mint Lesion™ provides you with extensive possibilities to analyze your quantitative data of patients and patient cohorts. The results can contribute to various research aims, including research about the assessment or comparison of quantitative / qualitative imaging methods for specific medical aims, research about response evaluation criteria standardization, and research about comparing / assessing the applicability of criteria for specific medical aims.
Optimum Customizability
All criteria related tools and processes can be customized with little efforts. This includes the tools for acquisition / measurement of quantitative parameters, the categorization of lesions, the protocols for an automated response assessment computation, and more.
Key Features – What can mint Lesion™ provide you with?
- Generic criteria engine to map arbitrary response evaluation criteria definitions / quantitative parameters
- Customizable response assessment engine for insights about how response category definitions affect your outcome
- Pro-active user support to ease your work in adherence to custom protocols
- Compare your response assessments to established criteria, like e.g. WHO, RECIST 1.0 and 1.1, and various modified RECIST criteria.
- Open database design to get answers that fit your custom research aims
- Vendor-independent interface to integrate custom algorithms for lesion quantification, like e.g. volumetry/segmentation
