Medweb's 3D Imaging Webserver Enables Superior Evaluation of Radiology Studies on an Everyday PC

    SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 28 /PRNewswire/ -- Medweb, a leading provider of
distributed teleradiology and PACS solutions used around the world, unveiled
Medweb Advanced 3D Web PACS at the RSNA 2005 conference in Chicago. Medweb
Advanced 3D Web PACS enables many of the features and functions of 3D imaging
currently only available on expensive and dedicated Advanced 3D workstations.
    Using patented techniques, Medweb Advanced 3D Web PACS allows users on a
standard personal computer to take advantage of advanced 3D templating and
auto segmenting of image data from the latest crop of spiral CT scanners, in
which studies typically exceed 500 images. The tool extends the functionality
of 3D templating and sculpting tools to surgeons, oncologists and other
physicians in the medical community who require use of the latest imaging
technologies.
    By comparison, conventional 2D image display workstations are obsolete and
tedious to use when evaluating studies originating from the latest 16 and 32
slice CT scanners. Medweb Advanced 3D Web PACS allows the distribution of the
same information in a manageable 3D volume that is easy to display and
navigate. The solution enables isolation, sculpting, zoom-in and 360-degree
rotation of images, as well as MIP, MPR, various measurement and 3D cursor
functions alongside conventional 2D image windows. The auto segmentation tools
isolate bone, blood vessels, and other organs using either simple template
buttons or customizable settings.
    For a fraction of the price of a dedicated workstation, Medweb Advanced 3D
Web PACS can be easily integrated into a conventional PACS infrastructure, can
act as a standalone PACS, or function as a modality PACS system for the
considerably increased demands created by the latest CT technology. It is also
compatible with all Medweb products, including a variety of customizable PACS
solutions like the Personal PACS Webserver, Office/OR PACS and Enterprise
PACS. Medweb solutions also include complete RIS, dictation, transcription,
billing and reporting.

    Medweb, a provider of distributed teleradiology, PACS and telemedicine
solutions since 1992, holds several major patents for web-based medical image
viewing. Its clinical information solutions are built upon public standards
such as DICOM, HL7 and Internet technologies. Medweb's platform of reliable,
secure and affordable products is designed to dramatically improve the
delivery of high-quality healthcare, reduce provider costs and increase
profitability for medical care organizations. Due to their proven reliability
and success, Medweb's solutions are used by the US Army, Navy and Air Force,
as well as physicians, radiology groups, hospitals and universities around the
world.
