Maxant Technologies, Inc. Unveils Latest Enhancements For Expanded Functionality & Usability Of Digital Viewing Station At Key Radiological Conference

NILES, Ill., Nov. 21 /PRNewswire/ -- MAXANT Technologies, Inc., a leader in displaying medical images for more than three decades, will introduce enhancements to its popular digital viewing station MediPort at the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) 92nd Scientific Assembly and Annual Meeting, November 26 - December 1, 2006, McCormick Place, Chicago, Illinois. MediPort is a unique digital viewing workstation that combines the space-saving construction and easy access of a wall-mounted film viewer with the feature-rich functionality of today's digital workstations. Extremely well received by healthcare professionals across the country since its debut at RSNA last year, MediPort will display its latest features for increased flexibility and viewing to 2006 attendees at Booth #2306. These include:

* A new fold-up design for the keyboard tray that saves additional space when not in use. * Enhanced image resolution now available in a single-monitor system, offering the opportunity to incorporate a 2.0 megapixel color or gray scale monitor without incurring the cost or space of a multi-monitor configuration. * An additional compact speaker option for use with audio-driven diagnostic specialty applications. * A newly built-in CD/DVD player for an even more streamlined design.

"We developed MediPort to incorporate digital viewing into today's crowded healthcare facilities. We upgraded the device's usefulness with the understanding that practitioners need easy access to sophisticated displays but have less room to spare than ever. Based on customer input, this latest version increases functionality while expanding its placement potential," MAXANT Chief Operating Officer John N. Patterson says.
