Leading workflow engine of the new IMPAX Suites introduced at the exhibition
RSNA (South Hall A # 4106) / Chicago, USA - November 25, 2007 - 10:00 CST
Agfa HealthCare, a leading provider of IT-enabled clinical workflow and diagnostic imaging solutions, announces today it is showcasing release 6.4 of its IMPAX(TM) product line at the RSNA 2007 exhibition in Chicago (USA) from November 25th until 30th. The latest version of IMPAX represents the continuing evolution of the successful IMPAX series of products currently installed at over 1700 sites worldwide.
Users of Agfa HealthCare solutions will benefit from IMPAX 6.4's advanced workflow design focusing on the seamless integration of RIS/PACS/Reporting information (Radiology Information System / Picture Archiving and Communications System) and image management into one workflow from start to finish. In addition, the complex demands of advancing technology are eased with the release of new visualization and navigation tools for large volume studies (CT/MR), with complex multi-series review. IMPAX 6.4 also focuses on bringing disparate information to the radiologists' desktop, irrespective of the source.
New to Agfa HealthCare's IMPAX 6.4 is a redesigned clinical information page, that provides instant access to clinical data during the image review; embedded reporting tools for more productive voice enabled communication with ED and dictation solutions; and IMPAX SmartSeek(TM), a context-driven URL-based query model to support information searches.
Combined with IMPAX RIS and a suite of integrated clinical applications for advanced image processing (including virtual colonoscopy, PET/CT registration fusion, and advanced measurement and templating) IMPAX 6.4 delivers a single integrated IT solution that allows radiologists to manage their complete workflow, from protocoling to final reading.
