Moreover the app offers a telephony feature using VoIP enabling every aspect of mobile devices without compromising patient confidentiality. Last but not least, mRay works seamlessly with your existing infrastructure. A minimal server application needs to be installed which reads DICOM files from the disk and is able to receive files directly from your PACS. That’s all you need to start simplifying your everyday life at work! You can check out the app in a demo mode.

Contact us on how to access your image data with mRay. Details: - Viewer for radiological images (CT, MR, PR etc.) - Full functional client, no remote desktop viewer - Communication through messaging, audio messages or VoIP. - Intelligent connection management - MPRs - Optional pseudonymization - Query/Retrieve functionality - High security due to AES-256 based encryption - Server works seamlessly with every PACS Intended purpose: The software mRay as a radiology instrument can be used by medical specialists for the visualization of image data. Image processing allows the calculation and visualization of healthy and abnormal tissues. The patient group, for which mRay can be used, includes all patients from whom radiological image data has been created for the purpose of diagnosis or treatment. In a worst-case scenario the medical condition of the patient may be critical. mRay can be operated in hospitals, medical practices, on the go or at home. The software is dedicated for mobile devices for fast and immediate access to radiologic images for informational purposes. When using mRay for diagnostic purposes, national regulations must be considered and an appropriate display must be used. mRay allows the display of images and data types that are defined by the Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) standard (e.g. computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET), fluoroscopy (XA), digital x-ray (CR), ultrasound (US)). The software offers common radiological software tools (e.g. windowing, measurements, thick slices and annotations).

The pedsMRI app provides pediatric MRI protocols at the finger tips of the user. The intended users that are involved in performing MRI tests in children include pediatric radiologists, general radiologists, MRI technologists, radiology fellows and residents. This app has a search feature where the user can enter the body part, organ, pathology or suspected abnormality and a list of the possible suitable protocol will be displayed. Click the particular protocol to open it. Each protocol has list of suggested sequences and techniques that can be utilized for the MRI scan in children for the particular disease or body part. Uncommon sequence will have the purpose or usefulness mentioned with it. The protocols can be applied on all 3 major vendor MR scanners (Siemens, Philips and GE) and has sequence trade names. The protocols in the apps will be updated yearly in keeping with ongoing research and developments in the field of MRI. Developed by pediatric MRI experts from The Hospital for Sick Children.
