Idaho imaging center selects NovaRad RIS, PACS

Mountain Valley Imaging in Rexburg, Idaho, has selected NovaRad’s NovaPACS and NovaRIS technologies.

NovaPACS is an enterprise-level PACS offering a full-feature viewer with intuitive interface; seven-year on-site archive with off-site emergency back-up; full screen viewing; and menus and mouse-based functions are available to have complete access to images and reports from any computer, the American Fork, Utah-based company.
 
NovaRad said its NovaRIS, a web-based, open standards RIS that generates reports, analyzes exams, measures profitability and facilitates paperless management of patient records, was developed on the same platform as NovaPACS.
