Large German Government Hospital Selects Visage 7
San Diego, CA (PRWEB) November 16, 2015 -- Technology enables cross-site image access and ensures scalability to manage the ever increasing growth of image data
Visage Imaging Inc. (“Visage”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Pro Medicus Ltd. (ASX: PME), has announced its flagship product, the Visage® 7 Enterprise Imaging Platform, has been selected as the new enterprise viewer by a large German government hospital. Visage 7 enables enterprise imaging with amazingly fast, thin-client, server-side processing technology, as well as simple diagnostic mobile access via Visage Ease Pro®.
As part of the contract, the hospital will implement Visage 7 as the central component of a Deconstructed PACS® strategy, integrating it to the hospitals’ recently selected workflow solution, and several existing DICOM archives. A testament to the flexibility of Visage 7, most of the diagnostic workstations will be installed on Apple Mac computers running OS X. Visage 7 “satellite” servers will also be implemented at three other government sites in northern and southern Germany to facilitate a new enhanced level of image sharing with these sites for cross-regional diagnostic imaging access.
“Given the significant pressures on modern Radiology, we’re looking to Visage to provide a step-change in our historical capabilities,” said the department’s chief radiologist. “Visage’s speed and regional architecture will enable our physicians to have rapid access to images, from any of our hospitals, or wherever required to care for our soldiers and civilian patients. Visage also represents a fundamental change in how a system is configured. By adopting a modular strategy we will be able to seamlessly scale over time, while staying technologically ahead of our ever- growing volume of imaging data.”
Dr. Malte Westerhoff, General Manager of Visage Imaging GmbH said, “This deal is further validation of the strength of our technology and our strategy of being a key component of the worldwide move towards deconstructed or “best-of- breed” PACS. Our unique streaming technology allows instant access to image data for better patient care and increased efficiency. We are pleased to have this leading German hospital join our global customer base.”
“This has been a very strategic sale for us,” said Dr. Sam Hupert, CEO of Visage Imaging. “Not only has it significantly bolstered our footprint in the German enterprise hospital space, traditionally a difficult market to penetrate, it has also shown that the modular or deconstructed approach to medical imaging is now starting to gain momentum in Europe. We believe this will be positive for us.”
Visage will be exhibiting at the upcoming Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) 2015 annual meeting, November 29 – December 3 in Chicago, Illinois, at Booth #1350, McCormick Place-South Building. For more information, and to schedule a demonstration of Visage 7, please visit this link.
