AMICAS

  
AMICAS PACS 
AMICAS (Booth 7128) is unveiling its next-generation AMICAS PACS, which includes an enhanced viewing environment composed of a new Patient Record feature, along with a view into patients' imaging history, and the Halo Viewer, a brand new image viewer.

AMICAS RadStream reduces medical-legal risk by automating and documenting critical results communications. RadStream also automates the prioritization of imaging exams based on a "most likely to interrupt" method, which has been shown to dramatically increase radiologist productivity.

AMICAS Reach uses common e-mail and secure messaging to deliver images, reports, and information to any e-mail-enabled device via a secure Web-based portal. AMICAS Reach also provides referring physicians with the capability to request orders for new studies via a new order-entry module.

The firm also is demonstrating its AMICAS RIS application and its scheduling, charge capture, and workflow capabilities.
