FRAMEWAVE DICOM Bridge

This store-and-forward gateway permits connection of the imaging devices of multiple vendors and manages image transmission automatically. It handles six simultaneous DICOM connections (and overcomes the DICOM variations seen in multivendor environments). The bridge can find and correct network or transmission errors, often before users have noticed them.

PACSPro/DX Plus DVC

This system captures and transmits images, bringing them into a DICOM-compliant environment regardless of their source. It can make modality replacements or upgrades for DICOM compliance unnecessary by accepting input from up to five modalities that lack DICOM compliance (a film digitizer and direct DICOM capture can also be incorporated). PACSPro/DX Plus DVC is compatible with MultiView(tm)teleradiology networks.

PACSPro/DX Plus ScanStation

Laser or charge-coupled device (CCD) film-digitizer inputs are accepted by this system, as can video and direct DICOM capture. Film-based imaging modalities can, through the use of the PACSPro DX Plus ScanStation, be brought into DICOM compliance and transmitted to multiple destinations simultaneously. Capture and transmission can overlap, and MultiView compatibility is ensured.

FRAMEWAVE Film Digitizer

This system can make your film archive and current film-based imaging part of a DICOM-based network environment. The laser or CCD digitizer has an optional automatic feeder and can also accommodate video and DICOM inputs. It is installed and maintained to meet or exceed American College of Radiology guidelines.

FRAMEWAVE Frame Grab

This system captures video images from up to four older modalities that are not DICOM compliant in order to transmit them or make them part of the institution’s digital image management strategy. It can also acquire images from a film digitizer and a DICOM-compliant device.
