Executive Summary

Start-Up -- Today's CT scans yield high-resolution volumetric anatomic data, but the founders of VIDA Diagnostics believe they hold much more clinically useful information. VIDA was formed in 2005 to extract the utmost value from lung CT scans. The company is headed toward commercialization of a quantitative software tool that, in a 3-D model, can predict the true dimensions of airways, show the relationship of airways feeding the lungs to its particular regions, and isolate disease to specific regions. The tool can thus enable patient selection, biopsy localization, and accurate therapy placement in the emerging field of interventional pulmonology.
