PACS - Patient Archiving and Communication System

PACS or Patient Archiving and Communication System is a way of integrating the imaging from all your digital imaging modalities. It is basically a large database of patients with their images pulled together within a network which physically links all the devices together. It allows you to view ultrasound, x-ray, CT, MRI, digital videoscope images together on a single monitor.

We have developed a number of options for PACS and the most appropriate will depend on your local requirements. The solutions we provide are fully scalable from single review stations in small veterinary practices to complex hardware and software solutions for universities or group veterinary practices.
