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.
The system imports external DICOM-compliant CDs/DVDs from a reportedly wide range of PACS vendors, supports DICOM modality worklists, allow editing patient demographics, changing fields such as Patient ID/MRN and accession number, prior to import.
