Cutting-edge imaging solutions developed through continuous R&D

iRAD Technology

Our team of expert scientists, mathematicians and imaging experts have developed and calibrated the iRAD image enhancement software for radiology over a period of five years. Claritas has created a proprietary image enhancement algorithm that has its foundation in well known methods, but has been modified in crucial parts, resulting in a ‘novel’ algorithm, producing substantially superior and unparalleled image enhancement results.
The technology leverages well-known and long-established techniques of image enhancement such as HE (Histogram Equalization), AHE (Adaptive Histogram Equalization) and CLAHE (Contrast Limited AHE). iRAD overcomes the shortcoming and issues faced by these methods by using its ‘novel’ algorithm to achieve enhancement results of high precision and clarity, whilst ensuring image authenticity.

How iRAD Works

iRAD applies its novel algorithm at the smallest level of the image, i.e. the pixel. The optimal degree of enhancement for each pixel, based on a number of criteria is determined and then executed. After each pixel is optimally enhanced the image is reconstructed (or “stitched” together) to render the final enhanced image. Some of the key elements include:

  • Contrast and Sharpness – to make the dim features visible
  • Strength and Noise Suppression – to reveal small barely visible details
  • Constraints – to preserve small details and ensure no distortion
  • Pixel Level Enhancement – to preserves image authenticity

iRAD Platform

  • State-of-the-art image enhancement technology that is a powerful yet easy to use tool for diagnosticians
  • Seamless real-time cloud based processing of images which runs on Google Cloud Healthcare API
  • Accessible on any device supporting efficient workflow
  • Optional local onsite deployment in case images and data are not allowed to be transmitted offsite
