Agfa HealthCare Announces its Technical Integration Expansion of IMPAX 6.0

Agfa HealthCare will become a reseller for peerVue’s qiVue, a workflow, quality and communication solution, and caseVue, a teaching file and content management solution, enabling Agfa HealthCare to offer qiVue and caseVue to its IMPAX radiology PACS customers. The integrated Agfa HealthCare/peerVue solution allows radiology departments to meet increased regulatory and quality challenges while providing an easy-to-use, tightly-integrated workflow.

The solution helps enable radiology departments to meet requirements for accreditation by the American College of Radiology ( ACR ) and is in compliance with The Joint Commission’s National Patient Safety Goals. The functionality includes critical results reporting, peer review, emergency department discrepancy management, technologist quality control, and teaching files.

“Teaming with peerVue supports our strategy of providing customers with the tools and the technology they need to improve the delivery of patient care and efficiency,” said Lenny Reznik, Director, Enterprise Imaging and Information, Agfa HealthCare, U.S. “It allows them to comply more easily with recent changes in accreditation requirements, using a streamlined workflow. This single-vendor integrated solution helps meet customer needs to support best practices while reducing complexity.”

QiVue and caseVue are integrated into IMPAX workflow, providing physicians with single sign-on access to peerVue’s web-based applications directly from the IMPAX desktop and allowing them to launch their IMPAX viewer from peerVue’s application. This allows radiologists to be more efficient through simple point-and-click reporting of study discrepancies and other quality- and communication-related activities directly from the IMPAX desktop.

“Agfa HealthCare and peerVue have expanded their relationship, recognizing the growing need of healthcare providers to have tools and technologies that make it easier to track, report, and notify referring communities and accreditation organizations of critical results and quality related events,” said Kyle Lawton, president and CEO of peerVue LLC. “We’re excited that Agfa HealthCare will be offering qiVue and caseVue to its growing customer base.”
