June 19, 2017 — Fujifilm Medical Systems U.S.A. Inc. presented its comprehensive Synapse Enterprise Imaging portfolio at the 2017 Annual Meeting of the Society for Imaging Informatics in Medicine (SIIM), held June 1-3 in Pittsburgh. The annual meeting featured advancements in medical imaging, cutting-edge scientific research and enterprise imaging thought leaders.
Fujifilm showcased several solutions at SIIM 2017, including:
- Synapse 5 PACS – The company’s premier picture archiving and communication system (PACS) offers sub-second delivery of extremely large datasets and its underlying architecture promotes significantly less bandwidth consumption and tighter security. Synapse 5 delivers a server-side, zero-download viewer utilizing a browser-independent desktop experience and a dramatic reduction in bandwidth requirements;
- Synapse VNA (vendor neutral archive) – Designed to help healthcare providers realize efficiencies and reduce costs, Synapse VNA is a secure, scalable single-storage solution for capturing, storing, managing and providing access to the complete imaging record. Equipped with advanced life cycle management tools, it offers organizations the ability to secure and enable control of all image data, both DICOM and non-DICOM, across the enterprise that delivers a single, patient-centric view of the patient’s record;
- Synapse RIS (radiology information system): This full-featured workflow management system that is wholly integrated with Synapse PACS helps radiology departments and outpatient imaging facilities take command of their operations. Inherent advanced tools and features manage all aspects of the radiology practice. Synapse RIS offers online access for referrers, tools for scheduling and group-based viewing. Built-in analytics track productivity, activity inventory management and dose tracking;
- Synapse Mobility Enterprise Viewer: Utilizing the latest server-side rendering technology, Synapse Mobility Enterprise Viewer enables image access securely and quickly to any authorized user. It can be accessed directly via web browsers, launched directly from the electronic health record (EHR), or on Synapse Mobility iOS and Android device applications. It includes a zero-footprint DICOM and non-DICOM image and report viewer for the entire patient record, a unique collaboration feature for DICOM and non-DICOM datasets that uses real time audio/video capabilities for live conferencing, and a new Share feature to exchange images or launch into other third-party integrations. With Synapse Mobility Enterprise Viewer, physicians and all clinical users can access patient images from all departments and locations throughout the healthcare enterprise, including at the patient’s bedside, in the reading room and in their homes.
Fujifilm also hosted a complimentary dinner and educational symposium on the value of enterprise imaging. During the educational experience, industry thought leaders discussed the benefits of server-side rendering and explored the impact of machine learning on the future delivery of patient care.
