In a new health care era focused on quality mandates and patient satisfaction, tools that ease collaboration among the care team are in high demand.
Synapse Mobility, a zero-footprint mobile application from FUJIFILM Medical Systems USA Inc, Stamford, Conn, enables access to Fujifilm’s suite of Synapse products. Viewed from hand-held devices, in addition to Macintosh- or Windows-based PCs, Mobility gives radiologists, cardiologists, and referring physicians true on-the-go access to the images and information stored in Synapse PACS, Synapse RIS and Synapse Cardiovascular.
One of Synapse Mobility’s newer applications is a collaboration feature which aides in consultations during clinical situations such as real-time communication between physicians, referring clinicians, and patients, using any web browser available to each participant. It displays interactive three-dimensional diagnostic images, provides advanced viewing capabilities, including zoom, window and level, and uses MIP/MPR just as it would at a clinical workstation.
