Carestream in Big Demand North of the BorderIn the three short years of its existence, Carestream Health has emerged as akey player in the U.S. radiology market. Demand for its DRX systems hasrecently gone international with several Canadian healthcare enterprises,implementing the systems north of the border.

Among the facilities that have ordered the DRX-1 System are RadiologyConsultants Associated of Calgary, Alberta; Brooke Radiology Inc. ofVancouver; College Boreal of Sudbury, Ontario; Insight Medical Imaging ofEdmonton, Alberta; North Shore Medical Imaging Inc. of North Vancouver,British Columbia; Saskatoon Medical Imaging of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan;and Willowgrove Clinic also of Saskatoon.

The CARESTREAM DRX-1 System features a cassette-size DR detector thatfits into an existing table or wall stand Bucky and transmits images over a wireless network connection.

The lightweight flexibility, which aids in positioning and acquiring an image, along with the wirelesscommunication was an important factor leading to the decision by Radiology Consultants Associated topurchase the DRX-1, according to the facility’s operations and development director Mark Sevcik. The group

Page 4: Carestream Health Gains Official Approval To Host Personal ... News Coverage 5-5-10.pdfA cost-effective computed radiography (CR)/ mini-picture archiving and communications system

also purchased a DRX-Evolution suite because it “can handle every imaging exam because of the uniqueDRX-1 detectors. This single system has everything we need for a highly productive, diverse imagingworkflow,” he said, in a Carestream press release.

The DRX-Evolution system helps improve both productivity and patient care by matching the positioningflexibility of the DRX-1 detector with a fully automated suite of x-ray equipment. The DRX-1 detector can beremoved from the Bucky tray for tabletop views, and the system’s wall stand can be positioned by the table forcross-table views.

CR/Mini-PACS Imaging Solution Designed to Meet

Budgets of Medical Offices

A cost-effective computed radiography (CR)/mini-picture archiving and communications system (PACS) hasbeen suitably designed for both the imaging needs and budgets of clinics and physicians’ offices. Thesystem combines selected models of CR systems with PACS software that can run on a variety of personalcomputer (PC)-based workstations. Use of standard PCs helps lower costs and delivers greater flexibility forusers.

The Image Suite, developed by Carestream Health, Inc. (Rochester, NY, USA), also provides comprehensiveimage review capabilities including magnification, annotations, measurements, layout, and other tools.Clinicians can adjust and reprocess raw image data on the host workstation to enhance visualizationcapabilities and help deliver better patient care. Most mini-PACS systems give clinicians very limited imagemanipulation capabilities by only allowing window and level adjustments to the processed image. Image Suitealso features Carestream Health’s image processing software to optimize image quality.

Image Suite will include a choice of Directivew Classic, Point-of-Care 140, or Point-of-Care 360 CR readersand will be primarily sold and serviced by Carestream Health’s channel partners. Image Suite will also supportDigital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) storage from other modalities, including ultrasound,magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), and exams from other vendors’ CR systems.Being able to integrate all types of imaging systems makes the Image Suite a scalable solution for generalpractitioners, orthopedists, podiatrists, chiropractors, other specialists and clinics. It is scheduled to beavailable worldwide in the second quarter of 2010.

The system features DICOM store/print/modality worklist and images can be stored on CDs and hard diskdrives. Carestream Health’s processing software streamlines workflow and provides automatic identification ofbody part/projection to eliminate manual data entry.

Page 5: Carestream Health Gains Official Approval To Host Personal ... News Coverage 5-5-10.pdfA cost-effective computed radiography (CR)/ mini-picture archiving and communications system

Image Suite options include a report/notes template; long-length imaging software; and up to eight concurrentlicenses for web viewing and/or patient registration. Mammography imaging is supported when the system isconfigured with Classic CR Readers in countries where the Carestream Mammography feature is approved foruse. Digital images in DICOM/JPEG/BMP/TIFF formats can be imported and the system can be connected todocument scanners for digitization of paper records. The system also supports output to paper printers.

Both systems are not yet approved for use in the United States.
