Philips iSite PACS already includes advanced visualization tools that make it easier to work with 3D images from multiple modalities. Standard advanced visualization tools included with iSite PACS automatically manage this multi-dynamic MR study. Dynamics are split and 3D visualization per individual dynamic can be selected.
Now iSite PACS offers an optional additional set of powerful, easy-to-use workflow and communications tools. These tools, called iSite Volume Vision, can help radiologists make quicker, more confident readings of volumetric imaging studies.
At Children’s Hospital & Research Center Oakland in Oakland, CA, Taylor Chung, MD, associate director of the Department of Diagnostic Imaging, has found that 3D visualizations with iSite Volume Vision can help make faster interpretations.
"The 3D visualizations on iSite PACS have allowed me to more quickly interpret complex cardiovascular cases as it automatically recognizes various different MR pulse sequences and displays them appropriately with minimal operator manipulations. It can display 2D and 3D images from different modalities on the same screen/monitor allowing for easier comparison."
Bookmarks put your colleagues on the same page
With the bookmark function in iSite Volume Vision, you can capture the view that best shows the pathology you’re looking for and then return to that view later. But unlike a simple image capture, bookmarks bring you back inside the interactive viewing interface so you can keep manipulating the image from that point.
Merging combines your best images
Comparing current and prior images, or current images from multiple modalities, just got a lot easier, too. With iSite Volume Vision, radiologists can compare currents and priors in 3D visualization side by side, or merge images from multiple modalities right on top of one another—for example, an MRI and 3D rotational angiography from the cath lab to get a better view of vessel structures in the brain.
A scalable workflow solution
Available on release 3.6 /4.1 of iSite PACS, iSite Volume Vision reduces complexity to accelerate routine reading of 3D studies and helps enhance communication throughout the care team. iSite Volume Vision supports radiologists by giving them actionable information and simplifying workflow.
iSite Volume Vision tools are easy to use so there’s less time spent training. Saving time and making reading more efficient, iSite PACS and iSite Volume Vision may also contribute to improved financial outcomes.
Using iSyntax technology, iSite PACS advanced visualization and iSite Volume Vision are scalable solutions. Because iSyntax takes advantage of your existing clients’ processing power, there’s no need for additional investment in server hardware.
