With Remote Interface, our tablet-based workflow for MULTIX Impact, you can access the most often used functions of your imaging system from beyond the examination or control room. This allows you, for example, to check the list of registered patients when picking someone up in the waiting room. You can also identify patients by scanning their QR or barcodes before you take them to the examination room and edit the list of organ programs (OGPs) on the go.
