Digirad Corporation announces the immediate availability of c.pax, a combined structured reporting and picture archiving and communication system (PACS) in an online solution

Digirad Corporation announced the immediate availability of c.pax, a combined structured reporting and picture archiving and communication system (PACS) in an online solution. Digirad's fully-integrated approach reduces capital costs; information technology (IT) support and maintenance costs; increases practice workflow efficiency; and extends access of CVIS, for the first time, to practices of all sizes.

"c.pax will offer our many cardiology clients a tremendous workflow enhancement opportunity as well as greatly improve their quality of life by enabling instant web-access to all of their patients' imaging studies and reports," said Digirad CEO Todd Clyde. "Until now, quality systems that allow for integrated reporting and image management were largely limited to larger practices and hospitals due to cost and resource investment. c.pax allows a greater number of practices to adopt what is becoming an industry standard, and Digirad is pleased to be able to deliver the product to that large group of community practices."

c.pax is a comprehensive image management system for cardiology, including remote archiving, web-based multi-modality viewing, analysis and intelligent structured reporting, in one seamless solution. c.pax can be integrated with Digirad's product line and includes a unique remote archiving system that lets physicians edit and complete reports remotely, while eliminating the administrative task of implementing and maintaining a local archive.

c.pax simplifies cardiology IT, supporting best in class Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) viewing and reporting delivered anywhere, anytime. c.pax stores DICOM images and reports, remotely hosts web services that rapidly access diagnostic quality images and finalizes structured reports from home, on the road or any office location. c.pax is a fee-for-service based model with a low capital investment resulting in rapid return on investment.

The web-based software gives doctors the ability to access full diagnostic quality DICOM images, edit and sign-off on their structured reports from home, on the road or any office location. This flexibility improves efficiency and quality of life for busy cardiologists. Wait time for retrieving large studies is eliminated as c.pax technology identifies the studies cardiologists are expected to review, fetches them securely across the network and caches them onto the physician's computer in advance. Additionally, c.pax is essential to mobile and multi-site practices, by ensuring that critical patient information is accessible at all times, regardless of location.
