Myrian®Introduction
About Myrian®
Myrian® is a software suite intended for the visualization, storage, reproduction and exporting of medical images.
Image data may originate from standard DICOM modalities (CT, MR, US, CR, PT, NM, etc.) or digital photography (jpeg, tiff,
bmp).
Myrian® is adapted to 3D imaging. It enables Multi-Planar Reconstruction (MPR) of native images as well as real-time
modification of the thickness of slice reconstruction.
Furthermore, this software supports MIP and MinIP display modes as well as highly detailed volume rendering.
The modular architecture of Myrian® software means it can be expanded to house the optional Expert Modules, a
comprehensive range of specialized add-ons such as the XP-Liver module for the automatic detection of anatomical and
pathological structures of the liver.

Certain functions described in this manual may not be accessible in your version of Myrian®.

Warning! Please read carefully before use

Caution: US Federal Law restrict this device to sale by or on the order of a trained medical professional, including
surgeon, radiologist, clinician and technician.

Myrian® must not be used on portable devices such as a mobile phones or tablet computers for diagnostic purposes.

This software is a Medical Device as defined in the European Council Directive 93/42/EEC. Before use, please make sure
that you have thoroughly read and fully understood all the safety and regulatory considerations outlined in this section.

This medical software in no way replaces the competence and judgment of a qualified medical practitioner. It should
only be used by qualified and trained persons who are fully aware of the software potential and limitations in the lesion
detection by scanning method.

Intrasense assumes no liability for any misuse or clinical outcome resulting from the use of the software as an aid to
diagnosis. The software is made available to the User with the understanding that the software is only an aid or adjunct to
processes or decisions that can be made without the use of the software.

The software is designed as a visual aid and as such it is not recommended for use in applications where the image
geometry or the fused image geometry (as displayed by the software application) cannot be confirmed by other means.
The software should not be used as the sole basis for surgical planning, or the preparation, execution or post-operative
assessment of surgical practices.

The User should be aware that Myrian® makes use of certain technologies that interpolate within the data provided. In
cases where the pathology is near to or smaller than the resolution at which the data is acquired by the medical apparatus,
the generated data may sometimes resemble healthy tissue. Occasionally, such interpolated data may equally lead to artifacts
which should be identified and considered as such.The User should always refer to the image analysis performed in native
mode.

The User should be aware of the relative precision and validity of any results arising from the use of Myrian® (displayed,
printed or exported). The quality of the data generated by the software is directly dependent on the original quality of the
data provided and any potential manipulation by the User as well as the quality, nature and configuration of the display (or
print medium) and the need to interpolate data for the purposes of display. As an example, measurement values given by
Myrian® depend entirely on the calibration settings found in the DICOM image’s header.

Although Myrian® software is subjected to very thorough and intensive testing by Intrasense, it is nevertheless possible

Myrian® 2.9 - Quick User Guide - 2021-02-19 - Copyright© Intrasense 2021 7


Images included in this manual are for reference only. They do not constitute any contractual obligation
that unforeseen measurement and display errors may arise during use of this software. Users should at all times be aware and
warned of such an eventuality. Should the User notice any dysfunctions or faulty behavior of the software liable to put the
patient at risk, we strongly recommend that the User contacts Intrasense without delay at the following email address:
[email protected]

Myrian® treats image data originating from medical Studies which may potentially contain information that identifies
individual patients both in the local database and through the export of data. Even though this data encryption is disabled by
default, it is the User’s responsibility to prevent unauthorized access.

Prior to performing medical diagnosis on images created by Computed Radiography (CR in DICOM terminology),
please ensure the screen used is CE marked in compliance with Council Directive 93/42/EEC concerning medical devices.

LCD screens and computer projection systems may affect the display of imagery in a way which may alter perception.
The display settings in Windows® should be set via the graphics card driver to the highest resolution available and the area
displayed should be adjusted to preserve height/width aspect ratio (black borders may appear). Please note that such
distortion of the picture quality, known as anamorphosis does not affect the accuracy of any type of measurement made or
displayed in Myrian®.

The accuracy of the measurements displayed in Myrian® depends on the image resolution.

For security reasons, we strongly encourage upgrading to Adobe Reader X (10) where possible to view 3D PDF files. If
you upgrade to the new Adobe Reader, a separate install of Flash Player will be required by the Adobe Reader, rather than
using a built-in system which was previously the case in anterior and current versions and was source of vulnerability
problems. Initially opening a 3D PDF does not show 3D content but it can be enabled by simply setting the menu checkbox
at “Preferences – 3D and multimedia – Enable 3D content”. As Adobe Reader X has a stronger security model, this change is
not required if you upgrade.
Moreover, a warning yellow message bar also appears regarding viewing untrusting documents.
We also recommend you to disable Adobe Reader X automatic updates:
- Open Adobe Reader application and Choose Edit>Preferences
- In the categories on the left, click on Updater and choose ’Do not download or install updates automatically’
- Click OK

This product should only be used with approved hardware and software. Please refer to the Hardware and Software
Configuration section for further details.

If using ATI graphic cards, the User may need to change its Renderer settings into Hardware GPU instead of Software
CPU for better performance in Endoscopy Mode.

If the LOD (Level of Detail) is activated, the image may be degraded.

It is the responsibility of the User to ensure that the image datasets inputted to the Module are complete and that no
image or information is missing, otherwise results may not be reliable.

Some DICOM image formats include a module called « Real World Value Mapping » (described in DICOM Standard part
3, supplement 103). Myrian® supports commonly used values.
For security reasons, when some of those unsupported values are detected, Myrian® impedes the display of all
measurements/calculations based on image intensities (i.e. “n/a” mention on measurements, parametric map computations,
etc.)

Whenever 32-bit native images are imported in Myrian®, those images are by default converted into 16-bit images
which may result in the information loss in terms of image intensities.

The modality operator is responsible for the quality of the input data and the correctness of the patient information.
Suboptimal data may induce suboptimal results.

Using CT scans outside the recommended parameters is not recommended and may result in inaccurate results for the
identification of ROIs.

This product has been designed to function on DICOM standard 3.0 complete data sets. There should be no missing
images within the data set and the software should not be used to process interpolated data. If slices from the image data set
are missing then the results are not reliable.

Myrian® considers as low attenuation all regions which density is below -950 HU although this threshold value can be
configured by the User. Prior to use of the CT modality, the User should always make sure that it is properly calibrated to
ensure low attenuation calculation correctness

In your Institution, Data compression may be performed to facilitate transmission and storage. Several methods exist
which may be used with no reduction in clinical diagnostic image quality, including both reversible (“lossless”) and
irreversible (“lossy”) techniques. These methods should be used under the supervision of a qualified physician who should be
responsible for choosing and periodically reviewing the types of compression used to ensure appropriate clinical image
quality.

Myrian® 2.9 - Quick User Guide - 2021-02-19 - Copyright© Intrasense 2021 9


Images included in this manual are for reference only. They do not constitute any contractual obligation
If the User opens any image which is in ”lossy” format, the message ‘image with lossy compression’ is displayed on the
corresponding image(s). The compression ratio display is available following the procedure described in the User Manual

We advise you against using DICOM images with lossy compression.

The software operator is responsible for quality control of the images.

The term ‘Matching’ relates to the process enabling to identify and thus pair equivalent anatomical structures from two
(or more) distinct series belonging to the same patient. At no time will the User access deformed anatomical or functional
images.

When a Matching process between series is performed, always check the resulting synchronization validity, particularly
when those series have few anatomical references such as in functional imaging (for example, diffusion series).

The actions of the User may directly affect the accuracy of functions within the software environment.

The image Scrapbook functionality is intended for storing images along with any Annotations to provide a qualitative
overview of data. Under no circumstances should it ever be used as a primary diagnostic means.

Geometric distortion such as unequal magnification, pincushion distortion and parallax errors is known to exist in
conventional radiography, such as CR and RF radiography. In order to minimize errors, it is recommended to calibrate such
imagery as near as possible to image centers and over at least 200 mm.

All series that are compatible with MPR reconstruction can be loaded directly in volume mode, however the filters
applied to the image may affect the image quality whenever the displayed series is subject to one or both conditions
described below:
- Series where the inter-slice gap is greater than 10% of the slice thickness
- Series containing various voxel dimensions (Voxel Anisotropy) where the dimension of the largest voxel is more than 5 times
greater than the dimension of the smallest voxel
In such cases, a warning message appears at the bottom of any of the viewports using these filters indicating that the image
is not suitable for diagnostic purposes.

The segmentation engine performance results may be limited by the following factors:
- The quality of the image data provided as input to the segmentation engine for analysis.
- The training and experience of the clinical users in acquiring image datasets of the colon and applying post-processing

Myrian® 2.9 - Quick User Guide - 2021-02-19 - Copyright© Intrasense 2021 10


Images included in this manual are for reference only. They do not constitute any contractual obligation
software application.
- The User’s command of the functionality and application of the segmentation engine.

The User should visually check that the ROI segmentation is correct. If not correct, the User should re-segment the ROI.

Myrian® takes ROI superimposition into account. Any voxels that are shared between several ROI are counted only
once.

Surfacic ROI Mode is not suitable for Diagnostic Purposes.

To prevent any diagnosis errors, please check that the Centerline, the accuracy of the position of the lumen and outer
wall boundary contours, as well as the position of lesions and reference points all match-up to the exact anatomical positions.

Clinical decisions should never be based solely and entirely upon these results. You must correlate the interpretation
with the original 2D images.

The Fusion feature is designed for use as a visualization tool only.Therefore it is the responsibility of the User to
determine if the results of image fusion are satisfactory for visualization.

As a Medical Device, Myrian® is subject to specific requirements regarding the display of measurements. In this regard,
all metric units displayed in Myrian® and belonging to the Metric International System enforce the requirements of the BIPM
(“Bureau International des Poids et Mesures”).

In order to allow measurements to be performed, image data from CR or XA/XRF or DX modalities are automatically
calibrated according to DICOM standards (ftp://medical.nema.org/medical/dicom/final/cp586_ft.pdf). Accordingly,
Myrian® calibrates images in the first place on the basis of the PixelISpacing value retrieved in the DICOM fields, and where
applicable, on the ImagerPixelSpacing attribute. In that case, a message pops up to inform the user.

Measurement performed on the projection images, as is the case for DX, CR, DR, DX, RF and XA imagery, do not reflect
the real size of the object that is measured in the patient’s anatomy.

When using SUV calculation during PET assessment, certain assumptions are made with regard to the reference time
for the acquisition of the data series. Variability in the interpretation of requirements outlined in the DICOM Standard with
regard to determination of the start reference time during acquisition and the time of tracer injection may result in variability

Myrian® 2.9 - Quick User Guide - 2021-02-19 - Copyright© Intrasense 2021 11


Images included in this manual are for reference only. They do not constitute any contractual obligation
in the SUV values calculated by different vendors. It is important to note that due to inconsistency of approach throughout
the industry, the acquisition time used in SUV calculation may be any of the acquisition times presented in the DICOM data.

It is equally important to note that SUV is affected by a number of physiological factors which may cause variability.
Taking these two factors into account, SUV can be thought of as a simplified measure of radio-pharmaceutical uptake which
has a complimentary rather than directive role in the assessment, treatment and staging of disease.

The MIP rendering tool can be used on PET studies with FDG [18F] fluoro-2-deoxyglucose and may be suitable for use
with other oncological probes. Some adjustments may be required to optimize performance with other radio-
pharmaceutical products.

The ‘Set ROI’ feature should only be used in 2D planes and not in the 3D Fly through. Placing a seed point on a 3D
volumetric reconstruction cannot give an accurate location.

Automatic Vessel Measurements require Contrast-enhanced CT images. Measurements can only be calculated on
contrast-enhanced lumen.

It may occur that some Measurements do not match-up absolutely to anatomical measurements in the actual patient
volume.

When using Combined Measurements, the User must be aware that errors, inconsistencies or mistakes may arise in
their definition, in particular:
- The unit of measurement may not match that used in the actual formula
- The Combined Measurement Name might not match the corresponding Description
- The Name and/or Description of the Combined Measurement may bear little or no relation to its Formula, or may be
ambiguous
- Existing Formulas may contain errors, such as “operand” or “variable definition” errors
- Accidental match-ups between certain ROI and certain variables may generate Combined Measurement errors
- Combined Measurements are reconfigurable. It may therefore occur that a given factory preset may no longer be
configured according to its original parameters.

Intrasense provides a number of factory Combined Measurement presets which are intended as examples, however
we do not guarantee the exactitude of computed results in a clinical context. Intrasense can only warrant the exactitude of
results obtained from the computation of factory preset formulas using the original factory values of variables.

It is the sole responsibility of the User to create, modify and use any Combined Measurement in the context of
diagnosis.

Images included in this manual are for reference only. They do not constitute any contractual obligation
Careful checking and counter-verification using other measurement methods should always be performed to validate
results.

It is essential that the radiologist examines all images in the CTC examination, not only the images with segmentation
engine marks. The User should examine the entire colon. A 3D read should examine the colon in both directions.

It is essential that the User check the colon segmentation thoroughly if using a primary 3D reading.

The distance from rectum calculation should not be used for diagnostic purposes as it should only be used as a guide
to locate the ROI in the colon. The distance from rectum measurement should not be used as a guide for Optical
Colonoscopy (OC) examinations.

The computer operator must click on a polyp to launch segmentation.

The PEF has been designed to highlight regions with a diameter in the range 5-20mm.

Failure to comply with scanner specific protocols may result in inaccurate results for the identification, segmentation
and measurement of ROIs. Scans must comply with good practice for CT Colonography.

Segmentation may be suboptimal for pedunculated polyps, polyps arising from folds and flatter regions.

Reproducibility of the PSM output cannot be guaranteed.

It is not recommended that PEF be used with prepless (no colonic cleansing) or poorly insufflated cases as this may
affect the product’s sensitivity. The colon should be well distended. Performance of the PEF may be less than optimal in cases
where faecal or fluid tagging has been used.

It is not recommended that FT be used with prepless (no colonic cleansing) or poorly insufflated cases as this may
affect the product’s sensitivity.

Myrian® 2.9 - Quick User Guide - 2021-02-19 - Copyright© Intrasense 2021 13

Users should visually check that the polyp segmentation is correct. If not correct, users should re-segment the polyp.

When calculating the total volume of the Healthy Liver ROI, Myrian® takes into account every existing instance of
“Healthy Liver” ROI, regardless of any modifications to the “Name”. This is also the case for “Kidney” ROI.

To avoid any potential errors, verify the accuracy of all existing “Healthy Liver” ROI as well as that of any ROI volume
calculated relative to the Healthy Liver ROI. The same applies to the “Kidney” ROI.

Whenever the “Healthy Liver” ROI is modified, verify the pertinence of any relative ROI. The same applies to the “Kidney”
ROI.

This device is indicated for mammography only with the proper module XM-MG. This module isn’t marketed on the
American territory.

Lossy compressed images and digitized film screen images must not be used for primary image interpretations.

For true-size (1:1) size printing, please ensure that the DICOM Server used for printing has been properly configured for
1:1 printing to avoid any potential error.

When using 1:1 size printing functionality, please be sure to check carefully that all values which appear on the printed
copy strictly match all those displayed on screen before proceeding with any critical task concerning patient security.

True-size printing may not function properly in cases when the selected the paper format does not match the actual
paper size.

8 SeriesCreator: Reformat and Create New
Series

Reformatting planes only apply if the MPR mode is activated (i.e. the reformatting plane tools cannot be used in a
Native viewport) and the selected series shows a coherent volume. By default, this functionality is included in the
Standard and Advanced CT protocols.

- From the ’Create New Series’ toolbox available in the Toolchest, select the appropriate reformating plane tool
(rake) among those displayed according to the loaded series:

- Place the Reformatting Rake as desired on the image


The Reformatting Rake appears in 2 Planes of View. The position, orientation, spacing and size of Rake can be modified
by hand.
Simultaneously, a preview window pops up in the right-part of the workspace displaying the generated images. The
preview window reflects in real-time any changes performed on the rake.

By default, the generated images are displayed in the Preview area as thumbnails. However you can opt for full
size or column preview mode clicking on the corresponding icon above the Preview Area.

The ‘Full Size’ Preview allows you to see a close-up of the results of your Reformatting. All standard Image Control Tools
(Panning, Windowing, Zoom, Navigation and Magnifying Glass) can be used on the preview images although zooming
actually changes the size of the rake.

In Preview Mode, while mouse is over the image (Thumbnails, Full size or Column), it highlights in red the corresponding
slice on the rake.

From the ’Reformat’ toolbox, a number of parameters can be modified and tuned including additional ones:
- Total number of Images created,
- Spacing (between Images),
- Length,
- Thickness,
- Rendering (Average, MIP/MinIP)
- Number of Scout images created.

User-defined rake settings can be saved for subsequent Series Creation by renaming and saving the newly-created rake

profile (by default, <default selection>).

- Click on to create the new Series and visualize it automatically on the screen.

The new Series is automatically saved as a new DICOM series in the Local Study List and displayed on screen
beside the active Series

- Click on Print to send the images to the PrintComposer. In that case, no new series is created.
