Sapheneia Commercial Products AB filed for bankruptcy Aug. 28, 2013. Shortly before the company went into bankruptcy, it changed its company name to “Contact Imaging Sweden AB.” In July 2013, the Stockholm District Court ruled that ContextVision is the real owner of a key patent application filed by Sapheneia in September 2006. The court also ruled that Sapheneia should pay the legal costs of ContextVision amounting to TSEK 2,940. The amount has not been paid, and instead, Sapheneia filed for bankruptcy. The administration of the company in bankruptcy has been taken over by a receiver.
October 02, 2013 The Stockholm District Court ruled ContextVision is the owner of a patent application filed by Sapheneia in September 2006. The patent application represents the underlying technology across multiple medical imaging modalities. ContextVision proved that the technology within the patent is a result of work the two filing inventors conducted during their time at ContextVision.

June 1, 2012 — Through the rapid growth of multi-slice computer tomography (CT) imaging, radiation protection has become a major issue in the radiological community. In response to this problem, ContextVision has collaborated with Dr. Lars Borgen, Drammen and Buskerud University College, Drammen, Norway, to explore technology solutions that will deliver superior image enhancement in cases of reduced patient image doses. Today Borgen will present his thesis, “Application of Adaptive Non-Linear 2-D and 3-D Post-Processing Filters for Reduced Dose Abdominal CT.”

The last couple of years in the United States and Europe have seen an increased focus on the cumulative patient dose received from a wide variety of X-ray devices including classical X-ray, computed tomography (CT), interventional radiology and mammography. The deleterious effects of radiation dose have received widespread coverage, and the partial answer has been a movement towards non-ionizing diagnostic imaging equipment, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasound.
