TeraRecon’s RSNA 2006 Preview
San Mateo, CA--September 27, 2006:
Aquarius Solutions
Aquarius iNtuition™ advanced imaging workflow featuring
VolumePro 2000 Technology
TeraRecon will introduce the iNtuition™ platform architecture
for the Aquarius suite of
products. iNtuition™ is designed to deliver integration
of advanced imaging workflow into
the healthcare enterprise, and features an improved and more powerful
central rendering
resource in the form of the VolumePro 2000, based on the company’s
FALCON chipset. This
new platform architecture forms the backbone for future releases of
the company’s Aquarius
product line, and provides radiologists, technologists, and referring
physicians improved
throughput and a customizable workflow that can be tailored to individual
reading and
reporting needs.
At RSNA, TeraRecon will demonstrate the iNtuition™
workflow of “Automate, Validate and
Read," designed to minimize the manual interaction required to
bring a volumetric
examination to the point where a physician can make a definitive diagnostic
or therapy
planning decision.
Aquarius APS - Advanced Processing Server
The first step, “Automate” involves automatic pre-processing
of newly acquired examinations
using the AquariusAPS offline processing server. This system allows
automation of common
tasks like bone removal from CTA examinations, with results automatically
delivered to the
AquariusNET Server and/or Aquarius Workstation.
If desired, a technologist can then “Validate” the automated
results, to perform quality control
and additional editing if required, using the Aquarius Workstation
or AquariusNET Thin-Client as appropriate.
The validated result is then also delivered to the diagnostic workstation
(either the Aquarius
Workstation or an AquariusNET Thin-Client operating alongside a PACS
viewer), where
there physician can directly open the preprocessed study and move
immediately to the
diagnostic “Read”. Similarly, the referring physician
can access scans that are packaged in a
form that shows them exactly what they need to see, in an interactive
form.
