Developers, OEMs, engineers and IT administrators rely on our advanced toolkit and utility suite to reduce the design cycle, create, troubleshoot and manage complex enterprise medical imaging systems and speed time to market for innovative solutions of their own. Our DICOM toolkit enables software developers to implement a medical imaging application or modality with full DICOM connectivity with a minimum of effort. Our suite of DICOM and HL7 utilities give users a range of advanced capabilities to effectively develop, test and manage medical imaging systems.
Solution Components
Use these full-featured components for a customized solution:
- DCF – DICOM Connectivity Framework (DCF) SDK
- PowerTools – DICOM & HL7 Utilities
Working in a Specialized Domain?
The DCF toolkit supports development of a spectrum of solutions in specialized imaging domains. Whether your solution needs include Non-Destructive Testing (NDT), DICONDE, DICOS, veterinary imaging, dental imaging, digital mammography or clinical research, Laurel Bridge has you covered.
Standardize Study Identification and Distribution
Ensure critical patient information such as patient ID, patient demographics, originating location, exam type, and study description is normalized to enable seamless ingestion and workflow efficiency.
Image Access Across Departments or IT Systems
Enable radiologists to read all studies from any imaging sources, on the PACS they are familiar with, by ensuring current and relevant prior studies are available when needed, regardless of where they reside.
Reliable Delivery of Studies to External Radiologists
Provide timely delivery of new studies and relevant prior exams to the appropriate locations, teleradiologists, or, subspecialty physicians where ever the studies reside. Meet service level agreements regardless of scheduling complexity and clinical reporting needs.
Remote Ingestion and Delivery
Efficiently offload mobile and remote location acquisition devices and ensure secure, reliable delivery of medical images to a VNA, departmental archive or reading workstation.
Modality Sharing Across Multiple Scheduling Entities
Simplify sharing of imaging resources among organizations using different patient scheduling systems and ensure new studies are automatically delivered to the appropriate reading locations.
