REALTIME

By using National Instruments LabView 7 we can obtain experimental data in real-time:

Using National Instruments LabView 7, as a development platform for our data acquisition needs has allowed for the development of an interactive system that can do significant real-time data acquisition and analysis. We are able to input multiple analog and serial signals at the same time as we send out control signals to a variety of medical devices. The aim of this program is to make data collection an easy part of every experiment that we do in the lab as well as grouping the control of most of our equipment into a simple single screen interface. By linking with ventilators, XE gas machines, CT scanners, and real-time blood gas devices we are able to get a significant overall picture of what is happening to our subjects in our different experiments.

POST-HOC

Analysis of CT Images has become more complex and fruitful in recent years with the development of new CT technologies allowing for faster imaging and higher spacial resolution. These advancements create the need for new tools to analyzing large amounts of CT data quickly and effectively. The following are examples of programs we use in our laboratory.
