COPENHAGEN, DENMARK, March 7th, 2006. Medical Insight, an innovative leader in the OEM development of mobile medical imaging and information management software, has announced the commercial release of version 2.4 of its EasyViz™ Mobile PACS system and will be demonstrating its latest advancements in open standards interoperability at the European Congress of Radiology 2006 (ECR) in Vienna, Austria.

Medical Insight, long a supporter and active member of the (DICOM) Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine and Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise (IHE) communities has successfully completed its final round of integration activities during the recent interoperability workshop which was sponsored by IHE Europe in Barcelona, Spain.

“We are entering an era in Radiology systems where collaboration of information and systems is critical to connecting people and processes throughout an enterprise,” said William A. (Bill) Burns, President of Medical Insight. “IHE conformance is a major step forward in transforming healthcare delivery. “But more broadly, system interoperability is essential to eventually achieving easy, secure and convenient access to vital patient information and image data wherever it is needed. We’re proud that Medical Insight solutions already meet this developing standard, and are pleased to play a continued leadership role in this important initiative.”

“At the Barcelona interoperability workshop, we defined the interoperability standards that we and other vendors would need to adhere to and demonstrate this compliance involving the full suite of Radiology Actors and Integration Profiles,” said Niels Husted Kjær, Medical Insight Director of Research & Development. “Supporting the IHE integration profiles is key to making interoperability practical.” Kjær is also an active member of IHE Denmark and of the Information Technology (IT) Infrastructure Planning Committee of Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise, an organization that promotes the use of standards in healthcare IT products. Medical Insight is a founding member of IHE Denmark and continues to play a leading role in its advancement.
