TeraRecon Premiers HoloPack Portal at HIMSS17

TeraRecon debuted their new high-performance, cloud-based augmented reality solution, the HoloPack Portal, today at the Health Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS17) Annual Conference and Exhibition, in Orlando, Florida. The HoloPack Portal extends the TeraRecon viewing platform to provide a full-spectrum user experience that is applicable to both clinical experts and their patients.

TeraRecon President and CEO, Jeff Sorenson states, “By adding augmented reality to TeraRecon’s suite of solutions, advanced visualization moves from on-screen to off-screen with interactive holography.  This addition perfectly complements TeraRecon’s 3D Print Pack portal which expands visualization even further with an in-hand, 3D printed medical model.   Using advanced visualization to power an end-to-end medical image viewing experience aligns to our vision for innovative, engaging and intelligent imaging workflows.”

Leveraging Microsoft’s Azure as a high-powered GPU-enabled computing platform, the augmented reality solution is co-hosted in TeraRecon’s iNtuition Cloud along with their Within Image Analysis (WIA™) platform for applied machine learning.  Additionally, the HoloPack Portal uses image streaming technology optimized for superior speed and responsiveness by Seattle-based TeraRecon partner, Vizua.

Visit TeraRecon at HIMSS Booth #1475 to experience the full suite of viewing solutions including the HoloPack Portal, 3D printing and their full range of advanced medical image viewers.
