Digisonics Showcases Newest Functionality for OB/GYN PACS and Structured Reporting at Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine Annual Meeting

Digisonics (Booth #107) will showcase its upcoming OB 4.8 Release for its OB/GYN PACS and Structured Reporting System at this year’s Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine Annual Meeting in New Orleans, La.  The Digisonics system is standards-based and vendor-neutral, combining high-performance DICOM image review, structured reporting, an integrated clinical database and powerful PACS image archive into one complete solution for OB/GYN studies.

Digisonics’ OB 4.8 release introduces new functionality in all areas of the OB/GYN PACS and Structured Reporting System including imaging, reporting, fetal growth analysis and interfacing with 3rd party applications.  Reporting enhancements in this release have been designed to reduce human input error, enhance workflow and fulfill current AIUM accreditation standards and reporting guidelines. 

Digisonics will also showcase its two newest applications, WebView 4.0 and DigiConnect. WebView 4.0 provides zero footprint image and report review from any HTML5 capable browser or operating system. It is the ideal solution to provide clinicians with fast, anywhere, anytime access to their OB/GYN patient images and reports.

DigiConnect seamlessly launches external applications such as 3rd party EMR/HIS or radiology viewers as well as local or web-based applications using the default web browser directly from the Digisonics OB ultrasound reporting workstation.  The direct result of the interoperability between Digisonics and the 3rd party applications is a streamlined, efficient workflow, freeing up more time to spend on direct patient care.

A total of 16 cardiology practices from 12 states settled with the DOJ to resolve allegations they overbilled Medicare for imaging agents used to diagnose cardiovascular disease. 

CCTA is being utilized more and more for the diagnosis and management of suspected coronary artery disease. An international group of specialists shared their perspective on this ongoing trend.

The new technology shows early potential to make a significant impact on imaging workflows and patient care.
