In the forefront of breaking technology, CoActiv Medical announces new
EXAM-PACS touch screen image viewing for the recently announced Apple
iPad large-screen digital viewing and communications device. Based on
the existing EXAM-PACS iPhone image viewing system, the new iPad system
will support bi-directional data communication between a PACS and any
iPad using the new device’s built-in WiFi capabilities. This version of
EXAM-PACS for iPad will also be fully compatible with the Apple iPad 3G
model scheduled for release in April. The updated 3G model will allow
connectivity for anywhere, anytime image viewing.
“This
reflects our philosophy of remaining in the forefront of evolving
technologies. We believe the iPad will open up important new
possibilities for remote image viewing for radiologists and other
physicians, and CoActiv placed a priority on being the first in the
industry to support it.”
CoActiv EXAM-PACS iPad support enables secure DICOM Query/Retrieve
functionality and also allows files to be pushed directly to the device
over WiFi and 3G connections. Once images arrive on the mobile device,
they may be viewed using the full range of iPad’s Touch Screen
capabilities, including scroll, pan, zoom and window & level and
measurement functions. All manipulated and annotated images may be
instantly saved locally on the device as JPG files and emailed or sent
via messaging to anyone, anywhere in a matter of seconds.
This advanced EXAM-PACS for iPad communication is enabled by a
bi-directional integration with the award-winning OsiriX Mobile viewer,
which will run on the iPad and requires no additional software
installation.
Announced just days ago, the Apple iPad features a new ultra
high-resolution 9.7-inch (measured diagonally) LED screen and runs the
full range of iPhone applications with the benefit of a much larger,
easier-to-manipulate dashboard and unprecedented true-to-life display.
The device is extremely lightweight, offering physicians the truly
portable, high-quality image accessibility and display that they need.
