DICOM module integrates Zeiss systems with PACS

"It's a definite benefit for the user", said Dr Hans-Joachim Miesner, Business Unit Manager for Neuro/ENT of Carl Zeiss Surgical GmbH.

Image data (mainly radiological) generated by the OPMI Pentero and MediLive...

‘Integration of the DICOM module into OPMI Pentero and MediLive MindStream at long last makes the PACS-compatible archiving of intra-operative images a simple procedure. The devices are operated via the familiar user interface of the two ZEISS systems. The user’s work is greatly simplified. For example, he or she can send the data from PACS systems directly to OPMI Pentero and MediLive MindStream at the push of a button.’

* The international standard, DICOM = Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine – guarantees interoperability between different medical devices, irrespective of their system platforms. In addition to one or more images, the DICOM dataset contains information such as the patient’s name, gender, date of birth or instrument parameters. Thus DICOM has become the basis for electronic image archiving in hospitals.
