Novarad’s NovaCardio ECG Provides Viewing, Storage and Reporting in CPACS / CVIS

American Fork, Utah, December 2, 2013 – Novarad’s NovaCardio™ ECG seamlessly integrates with CPACS / CVIS to enable digital ECG reading, annotation, manipulation, storage and easy reporting. NovaCardio ECG is being debuted at RSNA at Novarad’s booth #7353.

The software improves efficiencies with functionality including altering machine-generated diagnostic text as needed, automated movement to the next study and auto sign,save and distribute.

To improve reading, the software features multiple vertical and horizontal calipers and enables display by rhythm or single beat and comparison with prior studies. NovaCardio ECG also supports patient CD or hard copy paper printouts.

NovaCardio ECG supports all DICOM ECG outputs from 12- and 15-lead carts and bedside devices. For those not providing native DICOM, Novarad utilizes middleware to convert and import studies into NovaCardio.

Report-building tools speeds and simplifies report creation and turnaround, billing, lab inventory management, scheduling, accreditation assistance and provides sophisticated administrator dashboards for real time evaluation of lab workflow.

This combined cardiology solution supports echocardiogram, vascular ultrasound, nuclear medicine and cardiac catheterization modalities. NovaCardio is a single access point for cardiology and radiology studies from the same application and workstation. Complete interfaces to EMR, EHR, HIS, PACS and other HL7 and DICOM-compliant systems are provided. All Novarad applications leverage a single database.

“Novarad has built its reputation developing some of the best, state-of-the-art medical imaging technologies and creating alliances with other industry leaders to help our customers improve workflow, productivity and quality of care,” said Novarad Corporation Product management Director Steve Fowler.
