FUJIFILM Medical Systems USA., Inc., a leading provider of diagnostic imaging products and medical informatics solutions, will showcase its evolving Enterprise Imaging portfolio of Synapse integrated solutions and spotlight enhanced features and next generation upgrades at the Radiological Society of North America 2016 conference and exhibition held November 27 – December 2, 2016 at McCormick Center in Chicago, Illinois.

“Enterprise Imaging is rapidly evolving as a necessary organizational priority for health systems across the globe and Fujifilm’s Synapse portfolio is the most comprehensive solution available today,” said Bill Lacy, vice president of medical informatics at FUJIFILM Medical Systems USA, Inc. “Our Synapse solutions provide core technology to allow health care organizations to deploy an Enterprise Imaging strategy that addresses modern IT architecture needs, security, cost saving operational efficiencies, physician needs, improved outcomes and diagnostic imaging excellence.”

Synapse 5— Designed with speed and functionality in mind, Synapse 5 is a next-generation, secure server-side technology that enables instant access of massive datasets, working on the most popular browsers and using less bandwidth throughout the enterprise. Advances in efficiency and ergonomics facilitate productivity and a better overall user experience. The latest design includes server-based image rendering and a zero-download viewer with browser and operating system flexibility, resulting in significant IT benefits. Integrated diagnostic breast tomosynthesis and MPR/Fusion eliminate the need for disparate workstations or separate applications to complete workflows. Synapse 5 was cleared by U.S. FDA in February 2016. Fujifilm's large base of current PACS customers can take advantage of the speed of Synapse 5 through an upgrade to their current system.

Synapse VNA— Fujifilm TeraMedica’s Synapse VNA is an enterprise-wide medical information and image management solution that serves as a vendor-neutral, scalable, and organizationally aware storage and distribution system for DICOM and non-DICOM objects.

Specifically, Synapse VNA enables secure access, management, distribution and visualization of DICOM and non-DICOM images and clinical data from any departmental system. Synapse VNA is unique in its multiple methods of EHR patient associated content capture and its ability to store content in its native format.  (Note: image viewing is not intended to be used for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes.)
