NovaRad lands NovaPACS deal

NovaRad Corp. has been awarded a contract from Central Ohio Primary Care Physicians Inc. (COPCP) to install its NovaPACS system for viewing and archiving digital images, NovaRad said the system will be integrated with the facility's existing RIS (radiology information system).
   
COPCP, a medical group practice with imaging centers in Columbus, Ohio, reads close to 30,000 studies per year, and since NovaPACS was installed at the main facility there in November 2004 the center has become 100 percent filmless, with the exception of mammography.

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

The two companies aim to improve patient access to high-quality MRI scans by combining their artificial intelligence capabilities.
