Focused on Physician Productivity
All Catella workstation software maintains a similar ‘look and feel’. This allows users to move from one workstation to the next while maintaining maximum productivity. The three most common tools - window/level, zoom and pan - are completely mouse selectable and controlled. Almost all other functions are one click away. Although a traditional worklist is provided, users may also move to the next patient’s images via a one click function.
Diagnostic Workstations
As the core product for your digital environment, the Catella Diagnostic Workstation represents the path to increased productivity. Our latest Version 4.0 features configurable screen display (single/quad), MPR, advanced tool set, on-screen thumbnails and more. Choose our standard 2MP monitors or optional 3MP monitors in single or multiple monitor configurations. Available in both portrait and landscape modes.
Physicians Review Workstation
Catella Review Workstations provide cost-effective image distribution. Also known as our “LAN” stations, these can be provided as either hardware/software solutions or as software only licences.
PacsVue - The Intelligent Viewbox
PacsVue is a full functioning review workstation that is as easy to use as a traditional film viewbox. Just hang it on the wall, plug it into your network, and PacsVue is ready to receive patient images. It uses advanced touch-screen controls, and a biometric log-in system eliminates the need for a keyboard and mouse. Our automatic “log-out” helps assure HIPAA compliance.
WebVue - Secure Internet Workstation
We use “push” technology to make sure images are where they are needed for viewing. And we deliver full DICOM quality images. Equally important, we send all images fully encrypted in order to help you comply with HIPAA guidelines. Need to query your archive for older images? No problem, you have full access to your files.
Catella Workstations can be configured to fit your requirements. Both the number of monitors and the system's components can be scaled to meet your needs. The building blocks are interchangeable, giving you the freedom to match your current capacity with your choice of configurations. No matter how you configure your Catella workstation, it will have the same ease of operation, productivity-enhancing user interface, and Active Voice Command features.
