The OpenMed™ Capture application is a member of
the OpenMed™ Capture family of products. This
application enables physicians to request remote primary
and secondary diagnosis of medical images, and information
in multiple specialties using a single, common workstation.
The captured images and information form an integral
part of the patient's multimedia Electronic Telemedicine
Record (ETR).
OpenMed™
Capture includes support for a number of multimedia
capture devices. Using a high-performance film digitizer
(Laser or CCD), OpenMed™ Capture converts radiology
plain film images from multiple modalities, such as
X-rays, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI), and ultrasound images, to digital format
for transmission. Standard document scanners may be
attached to provide for digitization of patient histories,
medical reports, imaging requests, notes, lab results,
EKG's and charts which are transmitted along with the
images. In addition to radiology and document images,
OpenMed™ Capture supports sound capture of 'Voice
Notes' which may be used to attach requests, instructions,
and queries to the ETR quickly and simply. A digital
camera can be used to capture JPEG images which are
then attached to the ETR while the audio capture mechanism
allows transfer of audio from digital stethoscopes.
The
standard, intuitive graphical user interface, makes
capturing images, patient demographics, and study information
quick and easy. To save time, the application allows
for misoriented images to be flipped or rotated in one
easy step, and it allows image spot magnification for
quality control. It also features user-selectable priority
and user-selectable compression ratio. OpenMed™
Capture allows the grouping of multiple images or document
components into a single study representing them as
thumbnails to ensure that all of the appropriate components
are included in the study. Once cases are reported,
a Case Management interface allows quick and simple
display of the report at the workstation - providing
an integrated solution. |
