Fovia, a world leader in advanced visualization and the developer of high definition volume rendering and XStream HDVR, announced the addition of F.A.S.T. cloud development to its XStream HDVR SDK Suite. F.A.S.T. cloud development enables companies to quickly create zero-footprint visualization applications that are accessible from any web-enabled browser. The proprietary server-side rendering architecture and optimized network protocols of F.A.S.T. cloud development help mitigate latency and bandwidth limitations, thereby allowing images to be easily served directly from the cloud.

F.A.S.T. cloud development is an extremely flexible SDK for developing cloud-based visualization products. It is ideal for companies that want to rapidly develop new cloud-based imaging applications as well as for those that want to migrate their existing product lines to the cloud. Fovia’s fully customizable, server-side cloud technology avoids the need to download DICOM datasets, enabling highly efficient cloud delivery, even for large CT and MR volumetric datasets as well as for large 2D studies such as echocardiography, mammography and tomosynthesis.

“I am excited to be launching our new cloud platform at RSNA. F.A.S.T. cloud development includes synchronization across different DICOM series that will allow our partners to rapidly implement fully integrated 2D, MPR and 3D into their product portfolios. Any sector that benefits from high performance and high quality cloud-based visualization—PACS, EHR, surgical navigation, artificial intelligence, and 3D printing—will see that F.A.S.T. cloud development is a game changer,” said David Wilkins, vice president business development. “I’m looking forward to creating products with companies that recognize the long-term benefit of our zero-footprint, feature-rich, cloud solution.”
