Proscreen Technologies understands the need for PACS hardware and offers high-end servers and storage suitable to fulfill the need for PACS workflow. The computing machine should be equipped with plenty of hard drive space, operate fast, instill security and privacy protocols, as well as be operational 24 hours a day, servicing near-zero percent downtime SLAs (service level agreements).
The PACS server is the central point of access for the network, with various devices connected to it. Imaging modalities such as MRI, CT, PET, and Ultrasound send images in DICOM format. Both the server and client communicate using the DICOM protocol. PACS clients display images via DICOM viewing software. A PACS server works by allowing radiologists and physicians on-site or off-site to have instant access to the scanned image for reading after the technologist has performed the scan on the patient. PACS servers are traditionally located on-site within hospitals and medical centers and now can also be located off-site, on cloud-based systems Healthcare facilities can also integrate a mixture of the two, creating a hybrid cloud system.
In a hybrid instance, providers house the primary images on-site, while backup redundancy can be hosted in the cloud. Proscreen Technologies analyzes the site requirements thoroughly and offers servers in single or dual Xeon base processors with enough RAM and redundancy options. We also calculate the storage requirements based on the modalities and scanned images per month basis and offer the best-suited solutions. We offer Intel and Xeon-based workstations with the required high-end graphics boards in our workstations.
