PACS-in-a-BOX

AMD's “PACS-in-a-BOX” products are a combination of hardware and software. Each one is a complete PACS solution. Each is designed to handle the needs of physician offices, clinics and imaging groups that have one to five imaging modalities (for example, X-ray, CR, DR, Ultrasound, CT or MR).

Assuming that there is limited IT expertise at facilities of this size, AMD has simplified its installation and training protocol to as little as one day. Ongoing support is handled remotely via the Internet. “PACS-in-a-BOX” solutions can be interconnected to electronic medical records systems (“EMR”) and/or scheduling and billing systems.

  OR and ER DIGITAL DISPLAY STATIONS
  With the introduction of electronic medical records, images and lab reporting a new way of effectively displaying this information in the OR and ER is needed. Particularly sensitive areas, such as operating rooms, often require custom solutions to avoid costly reconstruction projects. With a depth of approximately 4 inches, our digital medical multi-consoles can be easily installed into even the lighter wall construction found in many modern hospitals. Download the product literature for examples of the large number of projects we have handled.

CONNECTIVITY TOOLS

  MODALITY WORKLIST

Handling the "gap" between an EMR or RIS system and an imaging modality is a function called "modality worklist" or MWL. The object is to take the exact patient information input at the front desk and place that information in the DICOM header so that patient records and patient images match. It also saves expensive clerical time.

To fill this gap, AMD has developed solutions to fit two situations: 1) where the EMR or RIS cannot export patient demographic information AND 2) where there is no EMR or RIS but the facility wants to create a common, consistent patient demographic database from which all of their imaging modalities can pull information.

 

 
   
 

IMAGE GATEWAYS & ROUTERS

Catella Image Gateways and Routers direct traffic throughout the PACS enterprise.  Our flexible rules-based systems allow you to address special institutional needs cost- effectively.  One example is the use of an image router coupled with a Catella workstation to eliminate the need for separate archives in small satellite clinics.  This assures local up-time no matter the condition of the WAN, while saving tens of thousands of dollars on archive expenses.

 
 
   
 

CATELLA WEB SERVERS

Catella Web Server enables you to automatically and securely send images across the Internet anywhere in the world. Whether you need to have images sent to a referring physician 1,000 miles away or to an on-call doctor at 3:00 AM for a “wet read”, Catella Web Server software will give you the flexibility you need to improve overall patient care. Licensed WEB clients can also access your central archive from remote locations.

 
 
 

PACS "ACCESSORIES"

 

CD RECORDERS AND LABELERS

Catella CD Recorders and Labelers provide your facility with the ability to duplicate a patient's images quickly and efficiently. These units are ideal for providing images to referring physicians, patients and back-up needs.

We offer both a manual-loading single disk unit and a robotic multi-disk “volume” model.

 

   
 

DOCUMENT SCANNER

The digital radiology office needs methods for providing complete information “packages” to the interpreting physician. Catella Docu-Scan™ is a cost-effective solution to help you meet this need.

Important patient documents, including patient histories, reports, and lab studies, can be integrated with the patient’s DICOM image file.

The Catella Docu-Scan station uses our exclusive one-step BatchScan™ that allows you to automate the DICOM header creation, scan uncounted groups of documents, and send the resulting files anywhere on your network.

 
   
 

FILM DIGITIZING (SCANNER) SYSTEMS

Catella Scan software performs DICOM conversion and allows for selectable instant-send destinations. The Catella Scan station incorporates our exclusive one-step BatchScan™ that allows you to automate the DICOM header creation, scan uncounted groups of patient films, and send the resulting files anywhere on your network. Digitized images can also be sent over the internet and/or directly to our Catella CD Burning Station. All images are securely transmitted using Catella Image Armor™ (3DES encryption software).

OFFSITE FILM STORAGE AND SCAN-ON-DEMAND

You have a legal requirement to keep patient films or their digitized versions. A general rule-of-thumb is that general radiographs must be kept for 7 years (or until the patient turns 21-years old, whichever is longer) or for the life of the patient, in the case of mammograms.

Freeing up storage space saves overhead and reducing long-term offsite storage also carries a financial reward.

AMD provides low cost physical offsite storage for your film records, coupled with our Scan-on-Demand™ service that allows you to get digitized copies of patient images when needed.
