The completely redesigned EXCELART Vantage Atlas 1.5T MRI system from Toshiba features 128 elements that deliver high-resolution images across the entire body with faster imaging times.

Patient comfort is enhanced with the system’s new integrated coil concept that allows clinicians to perform multiple exams without repositioning the patient. The system’s optional 205-cm acquisition range allows for feet-first imaging for the entire body, except the neck and head.

Infinity MegaCare is a Web-based ECG management system designed with emphasis on performance, management and security.

The system stores ECG information from a wide range of electrocardiographs, Holter systems, exercise systems, ambulance systems and patient monitoring systems. Standard features include physician notes, calipers, acronym lists and management reporting.

Diagnosoft HARP is software that assists physicians in the analysis of magnetic resonance (MR) images by providing quantitative measurements and visualization of regional heart function. Based on technology from Johns Hopkins University, it’s the first FDA-cleared software designed for the analysis of tagged MR images.

The IMPAX Data Center provides large-scale multimedia storage of all types of medical images and diagnostic results for hospital groups, regional healthcare organizations and national medical archives. The system is designed to meet the needs of new technologies such as multislice CT. It also facilitates the extension of PACS (Picture Archiving and Communications System) into other image-intensive clinical departments, including cardiology and orthopedics.

The 7th Annual PACS Conference, “Informatics: The Foundation of the Digital Healthcare Enterprise,” to be held March 20-23, 2007, in San Antonio, TX, will focus on how to implement and integrate the multitude of clinical information systems (data and images) into a cohesive and seamless digital healthcare enterprise for institutions with minimal information technology (IT) and medical informatics support.

The first automated tiered storage appliance integrates ABREVITY’s FileData Classifier software, QStar’s Hierarchical Storage Management (HSM) software and Breece Hill’s iStoRA appliance that includes 3.2 terabytes of network attached storage (NAS) and a 10-cartridge LTO3 tape autoloader.

The combined solution offers the benefits of content-aware data classification, automated data movement with HSM file stubbing and genealogy tracking, disk to disk NAS and archive tape, all in a single box.
