Build 410A is released.

 1. Addressed FireVoxel document Load|Save speed issues.

Build 410 is released.

2. When FVX document saved, the REAL volume entity is always saved compressed independently of the UserOptions settings for compression state. This is to simplify the optimal saving of the files and minimizing storage\transfer times.

Build 408 is released

2. Lung segmentation dialog : change the "Smooth Image" parameter into (mm)

Build 406 is released.

 1. Implemented new Workflow:  "Parametric Map Batch Feature Processing". FireVoxel opening the folder containing FVX files. Then common parametric maps are identified. Radiomics feature measurements are performed on all files in the folder and result is placed into TXT file formatted for Excel import.

2. DICOM file loading of b-values:  Included the code check for using the DICOM-recommended tag before proceeding to the Manuf\Model-specific private tags. (Resolved the issue with the Philips\Activa images).

3. Loading an odd Diffusion DICOM set is facilitated by introducing a new option (checkbox) "Combine STUDIES" in DICOM load Dialog Box.
