PACS workstations are the result of dramatic drops in the cost of computer technology

PACS Workstations can be invaluable to your small private medical practice, rural clinic or other public health care facility when it comes to providing the best possible services. Unfortunately, many small and under-funded medical facilities are economically hamstrung when it comes to access to the latest RIS PACS technology. Even if funding is available, the variety of modalities in which medical images are made can often lead to confusion and make coordinating diagnosis and treatment more difficult than it needs to be. PACS workstations from Candelis offers an integrated solution to these challenges.

Candelis PACS are the first PACS workstations designed with the needs of smaller clinics in mind. Combining the functions of a RIS PACS, mammography viewer and database storage, the Candelis Imagegrid offers an all-in-one solution that can enable the small public health care facility and the private clinic to streamline and improve workflow, offer superior levels of patient service, allow real-time consultation and collaboration in real time over the World Wide Web, and more – all for one low price that is a fraction of the cost paid by major university medical centers and private commercial hospitals.

PACS workstations from Candelis Imagegrid are the result of dramatic drops in the cost of computer technology, and in fact is easily integrated with your office's existing computer network. The integrated mammography viewer makes it easy to call up, view and store medical images made from CT, MRI or EEG scans – all of which are displayed with perfect clarity. Because Candelis Imagegrid PACS workstations are based on the same technology as the PC with which you are familiar, it is easy for radiologists and other health care professionals to record annotations vocally and store these with other records of the patient as sound files that can be played back using the Windows Media Player.

PACS workstations from Candelis Imagegrid are also user-friendly and easily configured to meet the needs of your clinic. Those who work in the front office will find this RIS PACS exceptionally useful when it comes to the processing and archiving of patient records; databases can be created to include health history, billing and insurance records and more. You owe it to yourself and your patients to find out more about how PACS workstations from Candelis can help your office to provide superior levels of patient care at a greater level of economy of both time and money.
