PACS Systems
Developing a strategy for acquiring and implementing PACS can be an overwhelming problem or a well planned project.
NCD brings in the products and the people to ensure you experience a successful project with a great solution. Our strategy
is to develop a solution including networking, storage, communications, remote access, RIS interfacing, and the Rogan PACS product.
NCD in partnership with Rogan-Delft are design and implementation specialists who have the expertise and experience to ensure your
system is completed
effectively and within budget.
Rogan Archiving
Rogan OnLine XS Archive provides easy and secure access to all images. It archives images automatically on standardized media such as CD, DVD and DVD-RAM. For high speed access, a nearly unlimited number of RAID systems, including NAS and SAN systems are supported. A Rogan OnLine XS Archive is available in a variety of sizes, from the small Entry level to the multi-terabyte MASS storage system that has every image on-line. Secondary Storage, or a second archive, acts as an on-line backup. The DICOM interface of Rogan OnLine XS Archive makes connection to all DICOM imaging modalities in a multi-vendor environment very easy. Modalities include: CT, MRI, US, X-ray, Cardiac, Digital and Computed Radiography, Nuclear Medicine, Radiotherapy and more.
Rogan OnLine Entry Archive
Specialized for those situations that an archive is needed to start archiving studies from a single digital modality, Rogan-Delft introduced the Rogan OnLine Entry Model, with an on-line storage capacity of 20 GB, and a storage facility. Several users are now able to access the information simultaneously. The near line storage support is step wise expandable and must be ordered separately. Like all Rogan OnLine PACS products this is scalable to grow with the needs of the customer. The Rogan OnLine Entry model can therefore be upgraded to a Rogan Online XS, when need arises in order to offer more on-line and near -line storage. The system can also be used for decentralized archive solutions such as cardiology, NM, US, medical photography and others.
Rogan View Pro
View images within a second from any modality using Rogan View Pro software. It can be installed on standard computers and viewed on single or multi-monitor systems. Rogan View Pro can be used for diagnostic and reference viewing. Rogan View Pro is designed for remote viewing and teleradiology. Using Microsoft's Windows-NT, Windows 2000, and XP, Rogan View Pro allows you to integrate programs easily, such as Microsoft Word and PowerPoint. Rogan View Pro + can not only be used as a diagnostic workstation but also be used for a wide variety of situations such as review station for referring physicians, oncall teleradiology station, gateway and data acquisition station.
Rogan Ortho Pro
Rogan Ortho Pro is a module that provides specialized functionality for pre-operative orthopaedic work. Continuously evolving, the software's newest features give surgeons advanced tools for selecting and monitoring implants. The software is build up from three components: Template (for the templates that are used for measuring); Wear (for determining the wear of the implants) and Outcome (for monitoring the results of measurements).

Very often there is a need to acquire additional capability in our health care facilities but there isn't always the funds to purchase a new, full-functioned, state of the art, diagnostic imaging system. Therefore, a decision must be made to determine if the additional services can be shifted to another facility or if it is critical or at least necessary to remain at your facility. The decision usually comes back that it needs to remain and options to accommodate it must be considered.

Digital Radiography - Electronic X-Ray - When, Why and How?
It seems like we have crossed the healthcare frontier and the only thing left to conquer is analog or film based x-ray systems. MRI's, CT's, Ultrasound, PET, Bone Densitometry, Mammography and most diagnostic imaging systems output digital data, that is except for Radiography and Fluoroscopy. Most existing systems are still analog and put out either x-ray film and/or analog video. Although most mobile C-arms are now being produced with digital output capability, most existing C-arms, X-ray systems and R/F systems have not yet been upgraded. When you consider that today there are more x-ray studies done than any other modality study, we should concede, we are way overdue in moving to electronic Rad and Fluoro. These upgrades should probably be initiated before all others at medical facilities today.

The decisions are getting harder when we try and determine what our facility should invest in to provide the best patient care. 256 slice CTs, 3.0T MRIs, Digital Mammography, PACS Upgrade, EHR and so on....? We first try and determine our available budget or we are asked to submit a request for funds based upon current and future requirements, local competition and/or physician requirements. It is now necessary to take a long hard look at what is currently being utilized and determine how best to enhance capabilities. You probably begin to bring in vendors to discuss the capabilities of their new systems, as well as potential costs. If you are like many administrators, you immediately get a large blast of reality $$$$$$$. You instantly know that you will be limited to one purchase or less and it's possible funding won't be available for several years. If you are experiencing growth, patient count is increasing, test procedures are on the increase, and avaliable system time is becoming harder and harder to come by, then you know you will need to upgrade Radiology capacity.
