Rochester, N.Y., September 17, 2012. aycan Medical Systems, a recognized worldwide leader in medical imaging, announced today it has received FDA 510(k) clearance for aycan mobile, an iPad app for Teleradiology.
Designed to quickly, easily, and securely transfer DICOM images from hospitals and imaging centers to on-call and other radiologists and referring physicians with an iPad, aycan mobile’s simple interface and robust feature set make it the ideal tool for remote review, interpretation, and diagnosis of radiological images; reviewing images at patient bedsides; teleconsulting with colleagues; distributing images in house and much more. Together with aycan OsiriX PRO, a cost-efficient post processing workstation, aycan mobile improves workflow with key features including lossless JPEG2000 compression, automatic 256-bit AES encryption, and multiple series comparison and synchronization. aycan mobile has both FDA 510(k) clearance and European CE-Marking.
