“The combination of our leading IMPAX package with the advanced visualization technology from Barco has proven to be a success formula. The integration of Barco’s latest Voxar 3D release is the next step in this long-standing alliance,” comments Eric Maurincomme, Vice President Marketing and Business Development. “We are convinced that with Barco’s technology integrated in our IMPAX system, customers will experience the full benefit of advanced visualization functionality that is right at their fingertips.” “We are pleased to add a new chapter to our technology cooperation with Agfa,” states Calum Cunningham, Market Director at Barco. “This new integration opens new opportunities for Barco to bring its latest advanced visualization tools and dedicated clinical applications to Agfa’s large IMPAX customer base around the globe.” Barco’s Voxar 3D version 6.3 enhances IMPAX with advanced visualization that maximizes productivity. “It combines speed, easy access and advanced functionality in a package that is efficient, reliable and cost-effective. A single mouse click at the PACS workstation is enough to move from cineing 2D images to creating MIP, MPR, 3D or 4D reconstructions,” Eric Maurincomme continues. As you would expect from a real PACS integration, Voxar 3D and IMPAX share the patient demographics. What’s more, captures taken in Voxar 3D are stored in IMPAX as Live Images that allow clinicians to save and restore all their advanced visualization work. In fact, even Live Images from the previous IMPAX integration can be restored in this way. Voxar 3D has been specifically designed to optimize the ease-of-use and productivity of the daily imaging workflow. It makes advanced visualization accessible on any IMPAX workstation over a standard 100 Mbps hospital network. Voxar 3D also delivers fast loading. With the client-server ‘Enterprise’ version, loading an entire 1000-slice series in full diagnostic quality takes around 10 seconds, while a 2000-slice series takes about 13 seconds. As a tool for daily use, the suite operates effectively with any CT, MR or PET data, even data of sub-optimal quality. With the introduction of version 6.3, Barco has also put more emphasis on cost-efficiency. Therefore, the new product only incorporates the features and functionalities that are clinically relevant, with a special focus on reimbursable procedures. It makes use of powerful, off-the-shelf server technology and graphics cards, allowing users to benefit from the latest IT advances at the lowest cost. Along with competitive pricing and flexible licensing, Voxar 3D therefore offers a smart way to introduce advanced visualization throughout an enterprise, not just in a reading room. A full range of clinical applications Voxar 3D 6.3 can be complemented with a full set of clinical applications for specific medical disciplines.
