CoActiv, Meridian Technique integrate technologies

CoActiv Medical Business Solutions is integrating its CoActiv EXAM-PACS with Meridian Technique's Orthopedic templating software.
   
The integration offers users of CoActiv's EXAM-PACS the ability to plan and prepare for orthopedic surgical procedures using OrthoView's latest surgical planning tools. OrthoView is an orthopedic digital imaging system that allows orthopedic surgeons to pre-plan surgical procedures using templates for knees, hips and other joints.  
   
The combined PACS system for orthopedic practices gives hospitals and imaging centers the ability to provide orthopedic templating throughout the enterprise, the companies said.
