RSNA: Carestream to share patient portal, lesion management app

Carestream (Booth #2636) is demonstrating its MyVue patient portal at RSNA 2012 in Chicago, Nov. 25-30.

MyVue allows patients to access, manage and share their medical images and radiology reports with specialists and healthcare providers through a variety of web browser-enabled devices. It is available as an option for Vue PACS or Vue Archive users, and also will be available as a cloud service, according to Carestream.

Also at RSNA, Carestream will showcase its lesion management module—a native oncology follow-up application that can be added to Vue PACS to perform semi-automatic quantitative-comparisons of historical imaging exams.

Around the web

CCTA is being utilized more and more for the diagnosis and management of suspected coronary artery disease. An international group of specialists shared their perspective on this ongoing trend.

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