NovaRad adds PACS contract in Washington

Klickitat Valley Health in Goldendale, Wash., has selected NovaRad’s NovaPACS technology to its diagnostic imaging services.  

NovaRad said it will maintain and replace the hardware at no additional cost. Also, the installation timeline for the system to be live and operational, including training, was only one month, according to Klickitat.

NovaPACS offers fast image retrieval, full-feature viewer with seven-year, onsite archive with offsite emergency backup. Full-screen viewing, easy-to-use menus and mouse-based functions are available to give referring physicians access to images and reports from any computer, said the American Fork, Utah-based NovaRad.
