3D Tracked Reads with Speed and Comfort
iMedicPACS is Digital ArtForms 3D tracked interface for cross-sectional image examination of 3D datasets. iMedicPACS supports the Radiologist’s familiar workflow while improving on efficiency, accuracy, and ergonomics. While iMedicPACS is a departure from traditional mouse and keyboard interaction in many respects, it requires little training because it is so similar to the standard PACS workflow.
Comfort and Health for the Physician
iMedicPACS is a new and healthier alternative to the mouse and keyboard interface that has been driving the PACS since the early1990′s. Rather than hunching over the mouse and keyboard, the physician comfortably leans back with a natural and comfortable posture without strain. Although anecdotal, iMedicPACS controllers do not seem to cause repetitive stress the way the mouse does. We believe this is because the motions of the user’s arms in iMedicPACS are not constrained to a 2D plane and by their nature are non-repetitive.
Digital ArtForms designed iMedicPACS with radiologists, so it has the features clinicians expect for rapid diagnosis. Requirements defined by today’s leading radiologists have been translated into the next generation interface by Digital ArtForms’ team, with over 50 years of immersive interaction experience. Scrolling, pan/zooming, and obliquing are quick and natural (Figure 7).
