Franklin Square Hospital Center selects Dynamic Imaging's PACS

Dynamic Imaging has installed its second-generation fully web-driven IntegradWeb PACS at Franklin Square Hospital Center, a 300-bed facility in Baltimore, Md.

Franklin Square, which is a part of MedStar Health, handles more than 120,000 studies annually.

Blair J. Andrew, MD, chairman of radiology at Franklin Square, said IntegradWeb's integration with the hospital's Novius RIS from Siemens Medical Solutions "is seamless, and IntegradWeb also provides radiologists and clinicians with simultaneous real-time access to both images and reports."

With IntegradWeb, all data are stored online.
