RSNA: DBI showcasing PACS performance monitoring technology

Double Black Imaging (DBI) (Booth 3052) will highlight its DICOMetrix image flow and performance monitoring PACS solution technology at the 2009 Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) conference in Chicago later this month.

The DICOMetrix will enable radiologists to pinpoint network outages, monitor images, clients and servers through one location with its Web-based WebDES solution. According to DBI, these solutions provide early warning signs for PACS administrators and IT personnel to track and mend network and imaging problems before they develop into patient care problems.

In addition, the Westminster, Colo.-based DBI will highlight its X-CAL calibration software suite that will feature its wide P-series LCD operating room solutions. According to the company, X-Cal provides automatic calibration, graphical results and table formatting for data reporting. The P-series line includes a 2-, 3- and 5-MP monochrome and high-bright color LCD screen for mammography.

The company will also showcase its 19-, 24- and 42-inch LCD operating room solutions with a splash proof surgical feature for all surgical imaging requirements.
