Atlanta, Ga. USA – 18 November 2015 – Healthcare imaging
specialist Barco continues to lead the industry in breakthroughs that
empower radiologists to quickly and accurately diagnose medical issues
and detect breast cancer at its earliest stages. Its latest display
system, the Coronis Uniti,™ represents another milestone in diagnostic
imaging, delivering on the promise of “one display, any image” to
streamline workflow and enable clinicians to complete studies faster and
begin treatment sooner. See this solution and other Barco innovations
at the annual RSNA conference, November 29-December 3 in Chicago,
Illinois.
With today’s radiologists facing mounting workloads, the
pressure has never been greater to read more studies, faster, while
maintaining a high degree of accuracy. However, more than 50 percent of
clinicians participating in a poll sponsored by Barco
stated that the growing complexity of studies is a challenge, and they
are often frustrated by productivity barriers. The majority expressed a
desire for automated display features that improve workflow and
collaboration, optimize layout for multi-modality studies, and improve
reading ergonomics.
Diagnose faster, treat sooner to improve health outcomes
Barco has developed the Coronis Uniti display system to solve these issues with the ultimate goal of delivering more timely and effective health care.
“We have harnessed our latest breakthroughs in medical display
technology to create solutions that help radiologists manage the growing
volume and complexity of studies,” comments Lynda Domogalla, Vice
President Product Marketing for Barco Healthcare. “The Coronis Uniti
display system supports clinicians’ ability to diagnose faster and thus
begin treatment sooner with a display that dramatically improves their
workflow and reduces occupational stress all day long. Also, with its
ability to present both PACS and mammography images on the same screen,
it not only increases efficiency, but also reduces equipment costs since
it eliminates the need for multi-display workstations.”
Rapidly embraced by the radiology community
Attesting to the widespread popularity of the display system, orders of
the Coronis Uniti have well surpassed the 1,000 mark. Recent customers
applaud its expansive real estate and crystal clear 12 megapixel
resolution, which sharpens images and facilitates reading of complex
studies on a single screen – reducing tiresome head and eye movement.
“I can view multiple images simultaneously in workflow fashion, without
the distraction and discomfort of viewing several monitors,” comments
Robin Shermis, MD, Medical Director, ProMedica Breast Care and member of
Toledo Radiological Associates.
The only display for multi-modality breast imaging
The Coronis Uniti also recently earned additional
FDA clearance for specialty imaging exams
beyond the original indication for 2D and 3D mammography, to encompass
multiple breast imaging modalities: breast MRI, breast ultrasound, CT
and ultrasound, and vascular and gynecological ultrasound. Optimized
with patented I-Luminate™ technology offering 4 times the brightness of
conventional mammography displays, the Coronis Uniti enables
radiologists to see extremely subtle details with greater clarity. This
is especially important in helping to make better clinical decisions in
dense breast tissue.
Barco diagnostic imaging continues to revolutionize the reading room
The
Coronis Uniti display system is the newest in a long line of game-changing diagnostic displays, including the
Coronis Fusion 6MP DL,
Mammo Tomosynthesis 5MP, and
Eonis clinical displays –
each revolutionizing the industry with never-before-seen capabilities
at the time of their introduction. The Coronis Uniti is the first
display that allows simultaneous viewing of 2D and 3D, grayscale and
color, and static and dynamic images on the same screen. This powerful
combination of capabilities and new
Intuitive Workflow features enable
radiologists to streamline their workflow and complete entire studies
on a single display, increasing their reading efficiency while reducing
stress, strain and fatigue.
