Recent advances in medical imaging technology have shed new light on disease progression. The ability to precisely measure small changes in structure and function has opened a new quantitative window into the field.

In this article we discuss the rapid growth in new multidimensional imaging technologies and provide a sneak preview of the new release  to be launched by Definiens in the second quarter of 2008.

The detailed morphology of a biological system allows insights into its functions and dynamics. But image data can only add value if it can be transformed into knowledge.    

The Landsat Program is the longest running initiative for acquisition of Earth imagery from space. The images acquired by Landsat satellites are a unique resource for global change research. Satellite Landsat 7 suffered a terminal hardware failure resulting in gaps within the acquired images.

Definiens joined Planet Action, an initiative to support actions about climate change. Planet Action encourages the earth observation industry and communities of geographic information professionals to help tackle the issues related to climate change.

Take a step back to see how the visionary science being conducted by our clients and partners, assisted by Definiens’ technology, is helping to tangibly improve lives.
