ACT Member Company InterKnowlogy to be Featured on Tonight’s Grey’s Anatomy Episode

Tonight’s episode of the Emmy Award Winning TV series Grey’s Anatomy will feature ACT member company InterKnowlogy’s groundbreaking Multi-touch capable 3D digital anatomical image product suite. InterKnowlogy designed this three dimensional application suite to help with angiography, surgical, and anatomical procedures and research in the healthcare and life sciences industry.

In tonight’s episode you’ll see Grey’s Anatomy “doctors” using the software to zoom and rotate a 3D image of a patient’s heart with their hands on a large touch screen computing device, the Microsoft Surface. InterKnowlogy’s application suite has proven remarkably useful to researchers and educators because they can use the touch screen to zoom in and leave notes, or draw stents, on specific areas of the 3D image of the patient’s organs. This information can then be stored remotely, on the cloud, where it can be accessed by other health professionals anywhere in the world.

VitruView highlights one of the ways in which cloud computing offers tremendous opportunities for innovation and scientific advances. Cloud computing is a dramatic development in internet services which allows users to shift all of their work online. They then simply use a web browser to run applications and save data, all of which is stored on remote servers, or “in the cloud.” The emergence of cloud-based services has helped to fuel the explosive growth of mobile devices such as the iPhone and other smartphones, which allow users to run applications that use data stored on the cloud.

The Grey’s Anatomy episode featuring VitruView airs tonight on ABC at 9pm EST. The show can be viewed after it airs at the ABC website here, https://abc.go.com/shows/greys-anatomy#.
