RSNA: Infinitt's PACS goes mobile

Infinitt, (Booth 2818) a developer of image and information management technologies for healthcare, is introducing its Infinitt Mobile PACS at this year's Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) conference, to be held Nov. 28 to Dec. 3 in Chicago.

The Phillipsburg, N.J.-based company said its web-based PACS includes a broad range of applications, including RIS, cardiology PACS, radiology PACS and reporting applications, and now can be accessed on mobile devices.

The Infinitt Mobile PACS allows physicians to view both stored and live medical images, patient histories and reports on demand from their iPhones, iPads and other smart phones, stated David Smarro, president of Infinitt North America.
