aycan's xray-print solution lets you print radiological and other medical images on plain paper (vs. film) at near diagnostic quality to reduce medical hardcopy cost by 90%. The solution fits seamlessly into both traditional and PACS workflows.
Key Features
Connect DICOM modalities (MRI, CT, US etc.) to a certified Xerox printer: DICOM 3.0 basic Grayscale/Colour print Service Class Provider (SCP)
Connect PACS workstations to a certified Xerox printer
Near diagnostic quality paper print in black & white and colour
Hospitals (radiology departments) and imaging centers are making the transition to digital with the goal to be filmless and therefore reduce cost. But referring physicians are still asking for hardcopy images together with the report (diagnosis).
Key Challenges
Cost pressure that hospitals and imaging centers are under
Hard copies are still required despite digital technology and its work processes
Filmless hospitals are an illusion like a paperless office
High cost to transport film to referring physicians via couriers
High labor cost to track, file, and transport film
aycan's xray-print™ solution teamed with a high resolution Xerox workgroup printer lets you print radiological and other medical images on plain paper at near film quality. It fits seamlessly into both traditional and PACS workflows to provide a cost-effective solution for sharing images with referral physicians.
90% cost reduction off current hard copy medical imaging cost to referring physicians and patients
ROI in 3-6 months depending on print volume
Low transportation cost because paper images can be sent through regular mail instead of using expensive couriers
No expensive film jackets because paper can be folded to standard sizes
Reduced labor cost associated with tracking, filing, and transporting film
Near diagnostic quality - industry benchmark quality
Environmentally safe because paper eliminates chemical-based film equipment and associated environmental compliance activities
Easy to file and store paper with other patient records
Operated like a film camera - the same workflow is used when paper printing vs. a film laser camera so there is no time-intensive special training
Independence of light boxes - paper images can be shared "anywhere" for meaningful discussion
Annotate and mark paper to clarify diagnostic results and descriptions
Print images in colour, including 3-D, US and NM
No light sensitivity - unlike film, paper prints are not degradable by direct sunlight
Remote administration
