3DR Laboratories (Booth 1206) is demonstrating its two main product lines at RSNA; its outsourced 3D post-processing service and the firm’s 3DR thin-server capacity on a 24/7 basis.  

In addition, the company is spotlighting its online technologist training product, 3DR Academy. The program, launched this year, allows students to take all or part of a Volumetric Medical Imaging curriculum as a series of modules, earning fractional college credit and continuing education units (CEU’s). Volumetric Medical Imaging is a certificate program for rad techs and is administered through Jefferson Community and Technical College in Kentucky.
