Healthcare Corp. of America takes Voxar's 3D technology

Voxar Inc. has sold its Voxar 3D and Voxar Colonscreen and Voxar Calscreen to the South West Coast division of Healthcare Corp. of America (HCA).

Voxar 3D uses a software-based approach to deliver 3D imaging on a PC, laptop, or picture archiving and communications system (PACS). Voxar says that for the cost of one or two workstations, its concurrent licensing plan provides 3D technology by enabling image distribution and post processing on multiple machines across the hospital DICOM network to meet user demand and increase efficiency.
