Visage Imaging to showcase thin client solutions at SCBT 2008

Visage Imaging, a wholly owned subsidiary of Mercury Computer Systems, will reveal the latest innovations to its Visage Thin Client solutions portfolio, and demonstrate performance levels and scalability for integrated 2D, 3D, and 4D advanced visualization, at the Society of Computed Body Tomography & Magnetic Resonance (SCBT-MR) 31st annual course, held this week in Charleston, S.C.

With thin-client technology, 3D images can be interpreted, post-processed and distributed throughout the hospital enterprise, and features optimized tools for radiology, cardiology, and other subspecialties, Visage Imaging said.

Furthermore, the new version of Visage CS Cardiac Analysis will feature a rich set of new tools and optimizations such as calcium scoring, improved reporting, and efficient manual editing of the left ventricle geometry, according to the Carlsbad, Calif.-based company.

The new technology shows early potential to make a significant impact on imaging workflows and patient care. 

Richard Heller III, MD, RSNA board member and senior VP of policy at Radiology Partners, offers an overview of policies in Congress that are directly impacting imaging.
 

The two companies aim to improve patient access to high-quality MRI scans by combining their artificial intelligence capabilities.
