Agfa integrates peerVue technologies with Impax

Agfa HealthCare has integrated peerVue's qiVue solution with its Impax PACS users that help them address regulatory, quality and communications challenges and reporting functionality. 

The integrated solution is only available in the United States.
 
Integration with Impax 6 platform will enable the radiologist to use simple point-and-click reporting of study discrepancies and other quality and communication related activities directly from the Impax desktop, according to Agfa and the Manchester, N.H.-based peerVue. Additional functionality includes peer review, technologist quality control, emergency department discrepancy management, and teaching files.
