Designed to realize compounding efficiencies for users, ImageDrive brings together multiple projects to a centralized archive while allowing users to work within a private area. The integrated HTML5 workspace and viewer gives the user a powerful technology to seamlessly and efficiently manage their images and files. This first in class technology includes features such as advanced de-identification, arbitrary tagging, workgroups and image sharing. ImageDrive can be used in a variety of settings for a multitude of use cases in areas such as research, industry and academia.

The ClearCanvas exhibit also features the globally used integrated RIS/PACS and open source development platform.

  *   Integrated RIS/PACS. ClearCanvas RIS/PACS, Team Edition and ClearCanvas PACS, Team Edition offers a robust, easy to use full PACS system. Configurable as either an integrated RIS/PACS solution or as a PACS, TeamEdition has proven stable and reliable to users around the globe. Powered with a full set of diagnostic tools, TeamEdition provides a smooth and intuitive user experience for clinicians, technologists, administrators and referring physicians.

  *   Open source development platform. Considered by many to be the most powerful platform in imaging informatics, the ClearCanvas open source development platform is available on Github under the GPLv3 license. his highly extensible platform has accelerated commercialization for creators of innovation. With a variety of commercial products the platform has been proven to be applicable across the healthcare industry though the variety of partners. The open source code base includes an image server, workstation and basic RIS function.

Demonstrations will be provided at the ClearCanvas booth located in Hall A at Booth #5521 at RSNA 2013.
