Two and three dimensional image review, manipulation, analysis and therapy planning capabilities that support image management display needs in the medical environment from multiple locations within and outside the hospital.

Productivity-Enhancing Second Console Workstations ~ Workstations designed to perform automated, routine tasks such as image review, printing and archiving as well as post processing capabilities that enable special services for referring physicians.

Diagnostic Review Workstations - Workstations designed to assist radiologists and surgeons in conducting primary diagnostic review and planning through flexible and interactive manipulation of multi-modality softcopy images including the use of prosthetic template overlays, and including mammography.

Physician’s Review Workstations - Workstations designed to give easy and economic access to multi-modality softcopy images in multiple locations within and outside the hospital. (e.g. teleconferencing, teleradiology etc.)

Lossy compressed mammographic images must not be used for primary diagnostic interpretation unless approved for use in digital mammography. Display monitors used for primary diagnostic interpretation of mammographic images must be approved for use in digital mammography.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
