Ziostation2 is an image processing application software available for installation onto customer owned hardware. This application software can be networked to provide for sharing of resources.

This application software receives medical images from modalities (medical image scanning devices such as CT) or image archives such as PACS through network or media and provides for the viewing, quantification, manipulation, communication. printing, and management of medical images.

This application software is intended for use by trained medical professionals to supplement generally accepted methods of interpreting radiological images.

Lossy compressed mammographic images and digitized film screen images must not be reviewed for primary image interpretations. Mammographic images may only be interpreted using a monitor whose characteristics are approved by the regulatory agency governing the market within which Ziostation2 is being offered.

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