Maximize performance in multiple
imaging environments
New, enterprise-wide PACS
integration options
Building on Barco’s portfolio of industry-
leading PACS integrations,
V
oxar
3D
E
ntErprisE
introduces new options for
increased speed and enterprise-wide
access to advanced visualization.
V
oxar
3D E
ntErprisE
can be integrated
into numerous enterprise-wide PACS
environments, providing a rapid, one-
click integration with the advanced
visualization tools of
V
oxar
3D
. Unlike
other solutions, there is no need to
manage two work lists; one for PACS
and one for your advanced visualization
application.
V
oxar
3D E
ntErprisE
can also act as a data
cache for large volumetric studies when
your PACS is not equipped to manage
and archive these studies.
Alternatively,
V
oxar
3D E
ntErprisE
can
be economically integrated into your
radiology workflow as an interim
solution when PACS is not present.
a
direct DICOM connection enables access
to your CT, MR and PET modalities
Cost-effective enterprise-
wide licensing
V
oxar
3D E
ntErprisE
’s cost-effective
licensing approach enables you to make
advanced visualization and analysis
tools available on a concurrent license
basis everywhere you need them to be:
within the radiology reading room and
throughout the hospital-enterprise.
Communication of complex
image reconstructions
across the enterprise
Use
V
oxar
3D
to bookmark and restore
complex post-processing steps and
image reconstructions, and distribute
them to clinical colleagues throughout
the enterprise. Using
V
oxar
3D E
ntErprisE
,
your clinical colleagues can further
manipulate image reconstructions using
V
oxar
3D
’s Live Image capabilities.
V
oxar
3D E
ntErprisE
Server
Combines
powerful,
off-the-shelf
server technology and graphics cards to
deliver high-performance visualization
simultaneously on high-end diagnostic
PACS workstations and standard
networked PCs.
•
Scales to the number of users
required. These users can access
the power of
V
oxar
3D
’s advanced
visualization tools on a concurrent
“floating” license basis from any
networked PC throughout the
enterprise.
•
Powerful graphics cards provide
hardware-based 3D acceleration,
delivering real-time video rates
of over 20 frames per second on
standard PCs.
•
V
oxar
3D E
ntErprisE
can act as a data
cache in environments without
a PACS or when the PACS is not
designed to manage volumetric
data.
V
oxar
3D E
litE
Designed to run on high-end diagnostic
workstations,
V
oxar
3D E
litE
provides
full Voxar 3D workstation functionality,
including
all
available
clinical
applications.
•
Allows you to load 1000 images in
less than 15 seconds
•
If a graphics card is installed,
V
oxar
3D
takes maximum advantage
of its performance in order to provide
extreme rendering speed.
Off-the-shelf technology
V
oxar
3D E
ntErprisE
is the only solution
to use powerful, off-the-shelf server
technology
and
high-performance
commodity graphics cards, which
means you are not locked to proprietary
hardware development cycles. This
allows you to take advantage of existing
supplier arrangements and use your
existing IT infrastructure. You also benefit
from the latest IT technologies at the
most competitive prices available.
Web-based deployment
The installation and maintenance of
V
oxar
3D
client installations is easily
achieved using web-based admini-
stration tools. This makes administration
effortless and effective. Upgrades are
quick and easy and in the case of
V
oxar
3D a
ccEss
automatic.
Advanced visualization tools need to be instantly available
anywhere you need to access your CT, MR and PET image
studies. By providing the right technology solution,
V
oxar
3D
E
ntErprisE
delivers speed and performance in multiple imaging
environments.
Much more than a thin client solution
•
Inside the radiology reading room
V
oxar
3D E
ntErprisE
rapidly delivers large volumetric image studies
to your high-performance diagnostic workstation - running
V
oxar
3D E
litE
- for local processing and analysis.
•
Outside the radiology reading room
Throughout the rest of the hospital, the viewing station is likely
to be a standard networked PC, operating over a standard
100Mbit intranet link. In such a setup, image reconstructions
are created at the
V
oxar
3D E
ntErprisE
Server and the results are
streamed to your PC - running
V
oxar
3D a
ccEss
- in real time.
V
oxar
3D a
ccEss
Provides access to the most commonly
used advanced visualization tools on a
standard networked PC connected to
the
V
oxar
3D E
ntErprisE
server.
•
Allows you to view 1000 images in
less than 10 seconds on a 100 Mbps
network.
•
Advanced processing of image
reconstructions are created and
streamed to your screen in real
time.
Scalable, cost-effective and integrated into PACS
Much more than a thin client solution
‘‘
Large volumetric studies are the nemesis
of most PACS solutions.
V
oxar
3D E
ntErprisE
integrated into your PACS is the answer to this
problem. It allows us to reliably and consistently
load 2500+ images in less than 20 seconds
from anywhere within the hospital
