Carestream PACS

CARESTREAM PACS elevates the concept of anywhere, anytime access to a higher level. No longer are clinicians bound to dedicated thick-client workstations with special installation procedures. Now innovative smart-client architecture allows radiologists and clinicians to perform their tasks at any licensed workstation within the enterprise. Specific display protocols, diagnostic and viewing tools, and other preferences based on a user’s clinical need are automatically available upon logon.
