PACS-in-a-BOX Solutions

AMD's “PACS-in-a-BOX” products are geared to meet the needs of the small to mid-sized practice.  Coupled with AMD- supplied hardware, these are complete solutions specifically tailored to practices with limited IT expertise.

Catella DICOM Viewing Solution – Single users can receive DICOM images and store images in an MS Access® database. Software allows you to record a CD and print to a network printer.  IMAGE

Catella Multi-User 5.0 PACS Solutions for Small Practices is available in two versions:

Catella PACS-1M – This software solution provides a full featured diagnostic workstation, SQL database archive and complete reporting software.  Connect up to three modalities to this PACS. You can add up to two additional viewing licenses to this configuration.  Hardware is also valuable featuring Dell® computers. IMAGE

Catella PACS-5M – Our “5-M” solution provides viewing solutions for “anywhere, any time”.  In addition to all the features of the “1M”, we have added 5 concurrent, browser-based viewing licenses. Unlike older applet type licenses, these are really portable.  Simply connect to the specified IP address and images and tools are available to registered users. 

Our Catella 5.0 software records all activities so that you can track activity. We even allow you to auto-logout users who are inactive. Therefore our current licenses really mean more user access per license than the older applet style.  Hardware solutions are also available, featuring Dell® computers.

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).

MetriScan BMD Testing

Since the passage of the Bone Mass measurement Act of 1997, Medicare coverage of biannual bone density testing has made testing a more affordable and more effective treatment option for your at risk patient population. Medicare and most private insurers cover biannual bone density testing for the following patients:

• Estrogen deficient women at risk for osteoporosis

• Men or women with vertebral abnormalities indicative of osteoporosis

• Men or women receiving long term steroid therapy

• Men or women with primary hyperparathyroidism

• Men or women being monitored to assess the response to osteoporosis drug therapy

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.
