In clinical practice, static CTA is often constrained by its single-phase acquisition—making it difficult to differentiate true vascular occlusion from delayed contrast filling. This can result in overestimation of clot burden and misinformed treatment decisions. Additionally, the ability to accurately evaluate intracranial collateral circulation remains limited, particularly in acute ischemic stroke, where it plays a critical role in guiding prognosis and intervention strategies.
uOmnispace.CT™ Dynamic Analysis enables comprehensive evaluation of time-resolved CT images, providing detailed visualization of vascular enhancement across multiple phases. It is particularly valuable for assessing intracranial collateral circulation, detecting vessel occlusions that standard CTA may overlook, aiding in moyamoya disease classification, and distinguishing arterial supply from venous drainage in arteriovenous malformations.
Dynamic Analysis provides intuitive and time-resolved visualization of collateral circulation by combining 4D cine display with multiplanar reformation (MPR). It enables clinicians to trace contrast flow over time and across multiple planes, making it easier to detect delayed enhancement, retrograde filling, and collateral pathways. Vessel enhancement in regions of interest (ROI) can be assessed through time-density curves (TDC), which support quantitative analysis of perfusion dynamics and help identify cerebral artery occlusion.
Supports Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA) mode to enable intuitive observation of cerebral blood flow by removing background structures and enhancing the visibility of vascular contrast dynamics. It provides high temporal resolution and delivers dynamic blood flow information without increasing patient burden. This makes CT DSA particularly valuable in time-critical scenarios such as acute stroke, where rapid evaluation of vascular status is essential.
In addition to neurovascular imaging, Dynamic Analysis supports body vessel visualization and joint motion assessment. It enables time-resolved viewing of contrast dynamics—for example, evaluating blood supply to liver or kidney tumors across phases, or observing functional joint motion such as temporomandibular movement—offering valuable insights for both diagnosis and treatment planning.

Automatic pre-processing runs background algorithms before the application launches, handling key steps like bone removal and table removal ,motion correction and artery-vein separation in advance. Upon entry, tasks such as motion correction, anatomical segmentation, and vessel delineation can also be completed automatically—reducing manual steps and streamlining workflow.
Dynamic CT reconstruction supports fast saving of results to streamline diagnosis. Cine images can be exported as video files for quick review, while dynamic datasets can be saved as multi-phase VR or MIP in DICOM format. Saved results are viewable in Review 2D and can be sent directly to PACS for efficient integration into clinical workflows.

Clinical Case
Dynamic visualization enables assessment of aneurysmal blood flow and allows clear observation of the spatial relationship between the aneurysm and the skull.
In a patient diagnosed with acute ischemic stroke affecting the right frontotemporoparietal area, comparative evaluation was conducted using CT perfusion analysis alongside dynamic data reconstruction to better characterize the ischemic territory.
In this patient with acute ischemic stroke and C5 segment stenosis, comparative evaluation using CT perfusion analysis and dynamic data reconstruction was conducted to assess the extent of ischemia and vascular impairment.
The intracranial protocol provides automated arteriovenous separation, enabling clear visualization of arterial and venous vascular structures.
One-click switching to the DSA view allows for detailed evaluation of large-vessel stenosis and abnormal collateral circulation associated with moyamoya disease.
In addition to neuro applications, Dynamic Analysis supports fully automated workflows for body perfusion imaging—featuring automatic bone and table removal and time-resolved visualization. The presented case illustrates renal perfusion dynamics using MIP and VR reconstructions.
