Industry Solutions for Biotechnology and Medicine

Medical Imaging

Use built-in functions for segmentation, registration, restoration, and image analysis; prototype new algorithms quickly and efficiently; and deploy them as standalone applications or as web-based tools—all from one system.
The Mathematica medical imaging solution provides a complete integrated workflow for image processing and application development with the speed and performance benefits of GPU and parallel computation.

Why Choose Mathematica
Ways to Use
  • Compare Mathematica to your current tools. Do they have these advantages?

  • Complete, integrated image processing workflow in a single document
    Competitor note: Matlab requires purchasing extra toolboxes for image processing and opening multiple windows to work with multiple images
  • Extensive built-in image processing functions on any platform
    Competitor note: ImageJ requires downloading and installing plug-ins created by varied sources for full functionality; OsiriX is only available for Macintosh operating systems
  • Procedural, functional, and rule-based programming paradigms plus easily recognizable function names create an efficient programming environment
    Competitor note: Matlab and other programs use primarily procedural languages, creating longer code, and use abbreviated function names that provide no intuitive indication of their meaning
  • Conveniently drag and drop images directly into the input line to apply image processing functions
    Competitor note: Unique to Mathematica
  • Integrated environment for interactive visual workflow
    Competitor note: C, C++, and other languages require you to switch between a graphical window and text input to visualize and process images
