A PACS solution for cardiology

Jörg Holstein

These and the company’s other innovations are now being demonstrated
at the fair. Jörg Holstein, CEO of the Bochum-based company, summarises the highlights of the new system.

With Kardio-PACS, the newest member of our JiveX product family, we are now offering a fully integrated solution, however, currently only or the German market.
Cardiology was an entirely new discipline for us, although our enterprise solution had already covered left ventricular catheterisation, albeit for image distribution only, not for primary diagnostics. Now, we include echocardiography and ECG procedures for diagnostics and documentation. Moreover, there is an integration solution for the cardiological information system (CIS) that is a CIS-PACS interface. CIS in turn, is a module within the hospital information system (HIS). We are convinced that this kind of integration concept will conquer hospital-wide image management just like it did in radiology.
A further highlight we are presenting at Medica is an updated endoscopy solution. We integrated additional functions, such as direct burning of a DVD from the endoscopy video for the patient. In addition, we developed a new diagnostic module for breast cancer screening, which offers graphics-based documentation of the screening result and which automatically controls image logistics to provide one single complete procedure.
