Software Package for Credentialing, Quality Assurance, and Ultrasound Image
Management Designed to Save Time and Costs for Emergency Medicine Practices
PEABODY, Mass., 2013-10-14 20:00 CEST (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
Analogic Corporation (Nasdaq:ALOG), enabling the world's medical imaging and
aviation security technology, is showcasing a new generation of the SonixHub(tm)
software at the ACEP 2013 Conference being held in Seattle, Washington, October
14-16. Analogic's Ultrasonix branded Emergency Medicine ultrasound systems are
designed to help reduce the time, costs, and paperwork associated with running
an emergency medicine practice.
SonixHub collects, stores, grades, and reports on the studies performed by
emergency medicine physicians who are learning to perform ultrasound
examinations on patients. The software is designed to meet the standards
defined by the American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) for
credentialing, quality assurance, and training.
'The first version of SonixHub was revolutionary in its design, structure,
function, and integration with the ultrasound machine,' said Vivek Tayal, MD,
emergency ultrasound leader. 'SonixHub's ability to provide administrative
guidance anywhere in the world with an Internet connection was a game changer.
I look forward to the second version with its new functions, scalability, and
revised architecture to meet the image management needs of emergency
ultrasound.'
Currently installed at emergency medicine facilities across the United States,
SonixHub is designed to collect, store, and review ultrasound exams that are
performed on any DICOM-compliant ultrasound system. When combined with the
Ultrasonix SonixTouch(r) or SonixTablet(tm) ultrasound systems, the software
platform provides an enhanced digital workflow, providing secure backup and
eliminating the need for paper records and thermal prints of exam images.
SonixHub organizes patient demographics, ultrasound exam images, video clips,
and exam findings on a secure server.
'Our next generation SonixHub is built on an even more sophisticated software
platform that enables new features to be easily added as an emergency medicine
practice evolves,' said Lars Shaw, vice president of global marketing for
Analogic Ultrasound. 'With the implementation of the advanced version of our
ground-breaking software, we believe physicians will realize significant
improvement in digital workflow and efficiencies, while eliminating the need
for paper, prints, and portable media devices.'
When using wired or wireless networks to transfer exam images from any
DICOM-compliant ultrasound system, SonixHub supports HIPAA compliance by
eliminating the need to use portable media such as USB sticks, CDs, and DVDs to
transport patient data. Clinicians can, via secure permission-based access,
review images from any terminal within a facility's firewall.
SonixHub is a license-based software platform enabling features to be added
when clinical needs change. SonixHub Basic, which is currently available as
part of the SonixTouch Emergency Medicine Package at no charge, includes image
management, QA, backup, and simple reporting.
