The Transposal System by Dornoch Medical consists of the Safety Station and High Fluid Cart. The Safety Station empties, cleans, and disinfects reusable 2800cc or disposable 1800cc suction canisters.

The TRUMPF iLED has applications in the OR, ER and ICU. The iLED 5 surgical light uses 184 white and color LEDs to produce 160,000 Lux of low heat, virtually shadow-free illumination. Since each LED in the iLED has its own convergence lens, overlapping fields of light are produced which virtually eliminate shadows cast over the surgical site by equipment and the movement of the surgical team. In addition to shadows, heat is also noticeably absent when using the iLED.

The show floor at PACS 2007 staged the debut of Pacsgear's new MediaImport, a solution that enables access to non-DICOM sources such as documents and multimedia, as PACS evolves into a multimedia repository, managing JPEGs, AVIs and MPEGs, digital cameras, USB memory sticks or flash memory, in addition to DICOM.
