eRAD adds uniRAD to RIS/PACS release

eRAD has released version 6.2 of its RIS/PACS, which includes a Web-based workflow consolidation and interoperability platform, uniRAD.

With customizable preferences and automated processes, uniRAD provides physicians with a single point of access to information stored across different systems in numerous locations, the company said.

The Greenville, S.C.-based company said that depending on the configuration, tools such as scheduling, dictation, transcription and report distribution can co-exist with other solutions, allow for incorporation of non-integrated imaging sites, temporary alliances or loosely associated users.

uniRAD is designed to offer multi-site, multi-vendor PACS integration, with optional storage configurations, according to Roy W. Miller, MD, president and CEO, eRAD.

Boston Scientific has announced another significant M&A deal, scooping up an Israeli medtech company focused on RDN technology. 

Harvard’s David A. Rosman, MD, MBA, explains how moving imaging outside of hospitals could save billions of dollars for U.S. healthcare.

The recall comes after approximately 3% of patients treated with the device during the early stages of its U.S. rollout experienced a stroke or transient ischemic attack following surgery. The expected stroke rate is closer to 1%, the FDA explained.
