Kodak Announces June Availability for Newest Version of CARESTREAM Radiology Solutions

Eastman Kodak Company’s Health Group today announced that it has begun taking orders for the newest version of its KODAK CARESTREAM Radiology Solutions, which will be available in June. The new software release, which contains feature enhancements for KODAK CARESTREAM RIS and PACS platforms, was demonstrated at the Society for Computer Applications in Radiology (SCAR) meeting.

In addition to a common look and feel, Kodak’s CARESTREAM Radiology Solutions deliver enhanced integration with third-party radiology, clinical, or hospital information systems. Tighter integration between Kodak’s RIS (radiology information system) and PACS (picture archiving and communications system), and easier integration with third-party information systems, creates a highly productive desktop and a more efficient information exchange.

“Our RIS streamlines workflow by efficiently collecting and communicating information about patient exams and scheduling throughout all the steps that lead to generation of the radiology report,” said Michael W. Jackman, General Manager, Healthcare Information Solutions, and Vice President, Eastman Kodak Company. “The RIS also drives our fully featured PACS, which now offers capabilities that are tied to each individual user and not a specific workstation. As a result, our CARESTREAM Radiology Solutions provide much greater flexibility for our customers, while simultaneously reducing licensing costs.”
