American Fork, Utah, Sept. 7, 2010 – Wheatland Memorial Healthcare, Harlowton, Mont., is the latest critical access hospital to turn its diagnostic imaging department into a state-of-the-art digital facility with NovaRad’s Web-based PACS technology.
The community hospital contracts with radiologists for reading and prior to NovaPACS used a teleradiology service. Now, interpreting physicians have access study images through the PACS, which is helping to decrease report turnaround time.
NovaPACS is NovaRad’s turnkey PACS offering fast image retrieval, full-feature viewer with intuitive interface, and 7-year on-site archive with off site emergency back up. Full screen viewing, easy to use menus and mouse-based functions are available to help enhance efficiency and referring physicians have complete access to images and reports from any computer. To complement NovaPACS, NovaRad offers NovaRIS. Developed on the same platform as NovaPACS, NovaRIS generates reports, measures profitability and facilitates paperless management of patient records.
