Agfa HealthCare showcases IMPAX™ 6.4 at RSNA 2007

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™ 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 technologies 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 additionally 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 fast 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™, 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 the works in progress applications that will introduce virtual colonoscopy, PET/CT registration fusion, and advanced measurement and templating) IMPAX 6.4 will deliver a single integrated IT solution that allows radiologists to manage their complete workflow, from protocoling to final reading.

“Agfa HealthCare is devoted to improving product efficiency and usability for its customers,” states Erkan Akyuz, Agfa HealthCare’s Chief Technology Officer. “Our commitment to improved healthcare delivery is represented across Agfa HealthCare’s entire portfolio of IMPAX Suites. With a focus on varying healthcare segments, Agfa HealthCare has created a series of HealthCare IT Suites based on the IMPAX platform, where each modular solution leverages the flexibility, experience and ingenuity Agfa HealthCare is known for.”

Agfa HealthCare kindly invites you to visit its booth at RSNA 2007 (South Building - Hall A - Booth # 4106) to discover its solutions and Works in Progress.
