Transporting Ultrasound Images for Offline Review

By HospiMedica staff writers
Posted on 27 Aug 2003
A new magneto-optical (MO) drive coupled with DICOM image-viewing software enables doctors to transport images and data from ultrasound systems to workstations and PCs for offline review. More...
The device was demonstrated at the annual meeting of the American Healthcare Radiology Administrators in Anaheim (CA, USA).

Previously, viewing ultrasound images stored on MO disks required returning to the ultrasound system and accessing them at PACS review stations or using image-viewing software, states Fujitsu (Tokyo, Japan), which developed the system. Called DynaMO Pocket, the drive eliminates the need to search for a power outlet because power is supplied directly through the fast interface and uses the same 3.5-inch MO disks that doctors and administrators have been using to store and transport ultrasound images. Software called ShowCase Viewer is included for offline viewing and includes a suite of image-editing tools.

"The DynaMO Pocket with DICOM Viewer is the first turnkey MO solution for the ultrasound market,” explained Dan Dalton, director, optical products, at Fujitsu Computer Products of America. Fujitsu is a leading global provider of information technology and communications solutions.
