Medical imaging PACS

web-basedmedical

Voyager PACS is a web enabled, server based PACS that provides medical images of any patient to any doctor, anytime, anywhere. Voyager PACS provides image archiving, soft copy reporting, management and distribution functionality. The system receives images from modalities or from other sources (i.e. Teleradiology) via DICOM and stores these on the PACS Server or attached storage device. The studies can then be viewed, reported and manipulated by the Voyager Diagnostic workstations connected to the PACS server via LAN, WAN or Internet connection. Voyager Integrator provides seamless interfacing to the Radiology Information System (RIS) via HL7 allowing information to be shared and exchanged between the Voyager PACS and the RIS. Centralized and/or Distributed Archive The Voyager PACS can be configured with either centralized or distributed archive storage. With a centralized configuration all images are stored in a central location and can be accessed by Voyager Workstations or Web viewing applications. When a distributed archive solution is in place the images reside on the network at a number of locations with a combination of a main server archive and satellite archives. The satellite archives provide local storage for images and link to the main server for access to the global database. All sites are connected via LAN, WAN and/or Internet with all images on the network available to authorized users regardless of their location. Advantages of Distributed Archives Some of the advantages of the Voyager PACS in a distributed archive configuration include:
