• Provides enterprise-wide review, data management, distribution and archiving.
• Eliminates time and costs for radiologists to switch between multiple workstations.
• Connects all existing PACS with a SuperPACS architecture option to create a global worklist and enable multiple sites to function as one.

IT Managers: Streamline set-up, integration and standards compliance

• Provides a scalable, Web-enabled platform with concurrent license setup.
• Integrates smoothly even in complex, multi-vendor scenarios.
• Complies with XDS, HL7, DICOM and IHE standards.

Radiologists: Report efficiently and improve diagnostic confidence

• Offers one workspace for routine reading and 3D capabilities that rival stand-alone systems.
• A mammography module allows you to read traditional general radiography or traditional mammograms, breast ultrasound, breast MRI and digital breast Tomosynthesis (DBT) exams from a single PACS.
• PowerViewer automates registration and volumetric matching of studies created at different times by different modalities.
• Uses streaming to enable fast review of exams over low bandwidth.

RIS/PACS Administrators: Leverage the productivity of a single system

• Eliminates costs to purchase, configure, maintain and train on multiple systems. 
• Improves user and referring physician satisfaction

It’s time to update your PACS, but implementing a traditional system would require a complete forklift, involving complex data migration and information consolidation.

CARESTREAM Vue PACS, combined with Vue Connect, is an easy upgrade. It consolidates reading, reporting, advanced 3D processing, archiving and distribution into a single access point across multiple sites, platforms and clinical specialties for quality patient care at reduced cost.

Financial:

• Eliminate costly data migration and the need to purchase a new archive system
• Leverage your existing workstation investment with new reporting tools
• Minimize capital investment with optional Vue for cloud-based services

Clinical:

• Enable efficient reporting and workflow by combining the latest tools into one workstation.
• Use streaming to provide fast remote review of exams over low bandwidth.
• Minimize imaging service interruptions by giving referring physicians access to images and reports via zero-footprint viewer

Technical:

• Create and point to metadata on legacy archive to seamlessly access priors without lengthy data migration
• Synchronize multiple worklists for on-demand reporting, workload sharing and enterprise distribution
• Offers radiologists the latest reporting tool sets like integrated 3D, automatic registration, volumetric matching of priors, voice recognition and mammography in one location

Taking lesion management to the next level.

Precise lesion measurement is critical for reliable evaluation of metastatic disease and faster assessment of the patient response to Cancer treatment. Traditional PACS cannot enable simple quantitative comparisons of historical exams – especially those imported from disparate PACS or modalities.

Our new lesion management application is an embedded application that does not require a dedicated workstation and significantly enhances assessment of oncology patients:

• Provides lesion management as a native PACS clinical tool
• Accepts prior exam results as baseline images from 3rd-party PACS and from numerous modalities
• Boosts radiologist productivity by simplifying segmentation and analysis
• Provides volumetric data with PowerViewer to simplify the comparison process between different data sets
• Supports oncology follow up with bookmarking and tracking of general anatomy over time
• Eliminates the cost of dedicated Workstations

Lesion management measurement can show whether a lesion is growing or shrinking over time.  Clinicians appreciate the expanded value of the comprehensive oncology imaging reports in accordance to industry standards such as Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST). Consistent, standardized oncology image reporting allows far clearer and more meaningful communication and collaboration between physicians.
