Images used


CoLumbo uses standard DICOM images so there is no need to convert images received from MRI into other formats.

Automatic processing


CoLumbo automatically detects and displays the slices with the most prominent suspected pathology, which indicates which discs are affected, the herniation size, channel displacement, stenosis, etc. Our algorithm can work with almost identical accuracy on data acquired with compressed sensing that can be acquired eight times faster. Based on the obtained localizers the software proposes the exact position and angulations of slices

Automatic processing

CoLumbo offers an efficient and user-friendly intuitive interface. It does not require extensive specialized training. Results confirmed by a radiologist indicate 90% accuracy, and 88% precision.

Positioning of slices

Based on the obtained localizers, the software proposes the exact position and angulations of slices.
