aycan workstationRochester-based PACS provider aycan has launched a mammography workstation optimized for use with two monitors from business partner EIZO. The FDA-cleared, Apple-based workstation also includes a new quadrant zoom feature and tomosynthesis support that provide improved diagnostic capability.

The two EIZO monitors available for use with the workstation include the RX850 and GX540. The RX850 color monitor effectively replaces a multimonitor setup with a 31.1-inch, 8MP screen capable of displaying a variety of medical images at once, including digital mammography, MRI, and ultrasound. The GX540 5MP monitor offers high brightness of 1,200 cd/m2, which brings out subtle differences in similar shades of gray and sharper renderings of details when displaying monochrome digital mammography images. Both diagnostic monitors feature high definition, high resolution, and multi-grayscale, and are designed specifically for displaying digital mammography images.

“aycan is dedicated to supporting the unique needs of the mammography and other medical communities,” said Frank Burkhardt, aycan director of North and Latin American operations. “This joint solution supports our customers need for efficient, integrated solutions that improve quality and productivity, while lowering costs.”

Other capabilities added to the aycan mammography workstation include a quadrant zoom feature, which provides a dynamic image view. Images are automatically increased to 1:1 and segments are visualized for the reviewer. The workstation now also supports the display of tomosynthesis objects, making it ideal for primary and secondary screening.

Optimized for the mammography workflow, aycan mammography workstation is powered by aycan OsiriX PRO, a 64-bit fast, Mac-based, vendor-neutral, advanced image-processing tool. The advanced hanging protocol plug-in in the aycan mammography workstation provides increased image loading times and an intuitive user-interface, allowing for the evaluation of dynamic breast MRI studies.
