Not only did GE Healthcare-Dynamic Imaging Solutions (Chalfont St. Giles, UK) have the highest overall user satisfaction composite rating, but it also led other vendors in six out of seven evaluated categories: systems performance; system reliability; installation and implementation; applications training; service and support; and product flexibility; and in the seventh category of integration, ranked second. MD Buyline (Dallas, TX, USA) has a member network of more than 3,200 hospitals.

"We couldn't be more pleased at this latest honor from those who use the product every day,” said Don Woodlock, VP and global general manager, GE Healthcare Imaging Solutions. "Meeting our customers' needs and exceeding their expectations is the return on our investment in people, processes, and purpose to realize our goal of bringing our customers a new "early health” model of care focused on earlier diagnosis, pre-symptomatic disease detection, and disease prevention. We continue to strive to be number one with our customers in every way.”

Centricity PACS-IW is a standards-based, single user interface, Web-based picture archiving and communications system (PACS) for new and replacement PACS. Unlimited volume-based licensing with either turnkey or software-only deployment enables users to maximize access using a cost-effective, highly scalable model. Access from any Internet connection is completely portable with a personalized user experience tailored to the user identification (ID) without limitation to viewer tools (e.g., three-dimensional [3D], multi-planar reformatting and maximum intensity projection [MIP/MPR]) or capabilities of the active study list.

Centricity PACS-IW, which uses native tools for paperless operations (document scanning), print pages (key images), industry-standard Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise (IHE) Portable Data Imaging (PDI) CD burning, and simple referring physician access for imaging results, is available for outpatient imaging centers, physician offices, and hospitals of all sizes. Its Web-based architecture enables rapid implementation, administration, and support from anywhere, as well as solutions for high availability and disaster recovery. In addition to core PACS functionality, integrated radiology information system/ (RIS)/PACS solution and clinical integrations to orthopedic templating, advanced visualization, nuclear medicine and digital mammography primary interpretation solutions are also available as optional modules.

MD Buyline maintains an extremely large online database on medical capital and informatics purchasing, discounting, user feedback, and vendor information. Data comes from vendor quotations submitted by members; interviews with real users; clinical site visits; trade shows; factory tours; and vendor demonstrations.

GE Healthcare provides transformational medical technologies and services, with a broad range of products and services enable healthcare providers to better diagnose and treat cancer, heart disease, neurologic diseases and other conditions earlier.

Probe light from a visible (red) diode laser and pump light from a modulated quantum cascade laser (QCL) are coupled into optical fibers and delivered to a flexible, handheld imager (blue dashed box). The beams are combined at a short-pass dichroic mirror and focused onto the sample using an off-axis parabolic mirror (OAP). (Image Credit:Rohith Reddy, University of Houston)
