Overview

Storage of patient data for the legally required number of years can be very costly. Candelis’s ImageGrid offers a  cost-effective, yet powerful, system that can easily read, route, and archive all types of DICOM digital images at a fraction of the cost of storing on a traditional PACS system.

More

ImageGrid is especially optimized for the storage of large 3D datasets, such as in Mammography (2+ Gigabytes). 3D tomosynthesis datasets can use large quantities of data in legacy PACS systems and placing these images on your current network will slow it down when they need to be transferred to the radiologist for review. ImageGrid is a highly optimized platform that  enhances a facilities workflow without adversely affecting business efficiency, while ensuring business continuity.

ImageGrid will eliminate the high expense of storing images, easily expand to over 100TB, and integrate into any radiology department workflow whether alongside a current PACS or replacing a legacy PACS.

  • With Candelis’ ImageGrid Plus we can instantly detect issues with particular device connectivity and address those issues quickly. ImageGrid alerts our team when there is an image transfer backlog so we can investigate even before the issue may cause patient care delays.
