Medical images that can be archived and administered by the PACS include imaging results from: nuclear medicine, computed tomography (CT), computerized radiography (CR), digital radiography (RD), DEXA (DX), special procedures and interventional radiography, ultrasound, mammography , among other examinations, it also allows the archiving and administration of data in wave form, documents and patient data including all the functions that are needed to access and manage the studies.

It only constitutes a support on which the doctors interpret the images and information that is being shown on screen or printed through their competent human and professional intervention. It includes a set of software tools that allow you to make measurements, add cross references, adjust the windows, synchronize and re-position the images and view them dynamically.

  • Commentaire du fabricant
    “We are in constant communication with regulatory agencies and competent authorities worldwide which allows us to implement global recalls or in-country communication quickly and effectively,” Abbott, which now owns St. Jude Medical told ICIJ in a statement. In addition to sending global notices to physicians worldwide, we also make sure that product advisories are available online and classification of product recalls and product advisories are determined by global regulatory bodies which can impact the timing in any given country. MD companies follow varying regulations in different countries. In come countries software is not regulated so a recall in one country related to software would not be classified as a recall or field action in another. In addition, review cycles within the regulatory process can be different in each country which can impact communication and recall timing.
