Agfa HealthCare (Mortsel, Belgium) announced the availability of workflow integration with Greenville, S.C.-based peerVue’s qiVue solution, which it says will help IMPAX PACS users address regulatory, quality, and communications challenges and reporting functionality.
Integration with Agfa’s IMPAX 6 platform will enable radiologists to be more efficient through point-and-click reporting of study discrepancies and other quality and communication related activities directly from the IMPAX desktop, say the companies. These processes are now required for accreditation by the American College of Radiology and in compliance with The Joint Commission’s National Patient Safety Goals.
