Viztek Provides Diagnostic Quality For Zero Footprint Viewing

RALEIGH, NC--(Marketwired - November 13, 2014) -

RSNA Booth #7322 -- Viztek, the leading provider of complete digital software and hardware diagnostic imaging solutions, today announced the ability to provide true zero footprint viewing for radiologists and referring physicians. The new capability is provided through the first pro-active licensing agreement with a long-standing patent holder.

“When Viztek claims innovation, you can count on it being delivered, and you can count on us shaking up the market a bit as well,” said Steve Deaton, Vice President, Viztek. “Radiologists and referring physicians need advances in PACS and RIS to provide real value, and that’s exactly what Viztek is giving them with the real zero footprint viewing that is diagnostic quality.”

The zero footprint viewing from Viztek is unique and truly market-leading. There are absolutely no installations or plug-ins required on the physicians PC as there are with other systems. Full functionality is available regardless of the operating system or age of the computer or platform, and it all exists within a web browser using server-side rendering for the added speed of download. Additionally, there are two specific advantages that separate the Viztek zero footprint viewing from others.

1. Diagnostic quality. All study types, including breast tomosynthesis, PET-CT, echocardiography and more, are presented in diagnostic quality. The system was designed to enable full diagnostic viewing from any location with no limitations.

2. Fully integrated dictation model. Voice recognition and audio dictation are enabled seamlessly, again with no plug-ins or downloads required. Viztek wrote and installed a smartphone app so that when radiologists open the study, the patient’s record is ready to receive voice recognition or dictation, eliminating the need to find a phone or another computer to complete this task.

“You either are zero footprint for diagnosis or you are not,” continued Deaton. “There is no middle ground, and Viztek is proud to be leading the way.”
