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.
