Reference report: Digital X-ray and image processing in orthpaedics, joint manipulation and sports medicine:

“We did not take our decision on the provider of our new digital image processing lightly. After all, it was not just a matter of cost. We had to be sure to achieve a near perfect workflow with the help of a user oriented system design. Equally important was an efficient after sales support system. In this regard, we could draw on the experience of a neighbouring practice.

Our orthopaedic practice has used the OR Technology image processing system dicomPACS^® for quite some time with great success. Its diagnostic and viewing capabilities and the double monitor workstations have been specially adapted for our practice and have proven themselves in daily use.

Very soon after we dediced on dicomPACS^®, the installation of the digital image processing system took place. It did not cause any disruption to our busy practice. OR Technology proved to be extremely competent in dealing with our practice's particular requirements. The software engineers adapted the software to enable us to select specific single images from the digital patient file and to open these directly on-screen.

By now, we would find it very difficult to do without digital image processing.”


Specifics of the image processing system
The two specialists in Naila for orthopaedics, joint manipulation and sports medicine picked the dicomPACS^® image processing system by OR Technology. About 120 X-rays are taken daily. The system is connected to a FUJI film storage system FCR-XG1, an ultrasound device and the MEDISTAR practice management system. Images and documents can now be called up directly from the digital patient file.

A high resolution 22" b/w monitor provides images optimally suited for diagnosis as required by the Medical Products Act.

For the printing of images, a high resolution laser printer has been installed on the network. All documents are scanned with a document scanner and films with an A3 film scanner and stored in the relevant patient file in the digital archive. Incoming faxes are automatically digitised and also directed to the relevant patient's file. A completely paperless modern management system is in operation. All images are kept immediately available on the archive server. Automatic backups are taken every day. Long term storage of images and patient data guarantee the legally required availability.
