SALT LAKE CITY - Imaging-streaming technology developer RealTimeImage has added several new features to its iPACS viewer. A complete set of measurement tools has been incorporated, as well as Magnifinder, a magnifier that allows the user to view small regions of interest at image quality comparable to lossless compression, even during the lossy stages of the image-streaming process.
Another new addition, SmartStream, optimizes image streaming on high-speed networks, as well as for slow connections. Optimization for intermediate-speed connections (DSL, T-1, etc.) will be added in the next few months, according to the San Bruno, CA-based vendor.
In other new introductions, iPACS now supports Dome's MD2/MD4/MD5 video cards. iPACS also now supports standard DICOM protocols to retrieve images from a DICOM-compliant archive. In addition, RealTimeImage has introduced Qualicator, which displays and updates image quality during streaming.
