SMAART Medical Systems to distribute AccuImage software

Digital image software firm AccuImage Inc. has inked an agreement with SMAART Medical Systems to distribute AccuImage's systems and diagnostic image software.

 SMAART Medical Systems will offer AccuImage software under its pay-to-use plan, rent workstations to a hospital, clinic or physician, and allow the users to select specific diagnostic image software needed for their practice or procedures. The healthcare provider would pay a fee each time it uses the diagnostic image software.

 SMAART workstations connect facilities' CT, MRI, nuclear medicine, angiography, cardiac catheterization, ultrasound and computed radiography and digital radiography modalities.

 AccuImage, based in Dallas, develops, markets and supports software for visualization, analysis and management of medical imaging data.
