Agfa HealthCare has rolled out a new version of its Enterprise Imaging platform.
The latest release features support for academic, multisite, radiology, and additional specialty workflows for medical imaging, according to the vendor. Agfa has also developed new modules aimed at research and training programs. For example, users of Agfa's Enterprise Imaging for Radiology software can now perform browser-based virtual conferences on Agfa's universal Xero viewer. Through software provided by Orpheus Medical, Enterprise Imaging now also supports remote viewing of live cases in the operating room as well as real-time audio and video consultation, Agfa said.
The company said it has also embedded advanced workflow capabilities and "intelligent" rules into its vendor-neutral archive (VNA) offering, enabling prefetching of images and retrieval of prior studies. In addition, images can be retrieved from multiple hospitals with a single query, Agfa said. Agfa has also extended Enterprise Imaging into dentistry and ophthalmology.
In other enhancements, Agfa has included Business Intelligence software to provide analytics and reports of historical, current, and predictive views of operations.
