Visualization in medical imaging:

PCCG 3D Package

The FDA-approved PCCG 3D application is designed to be totally integrated into the PCCG PACS and/or to any DICOM compliant PACS to the complete healthcare workflow. Through the 3D package PCCG PACS users get access to a 3D visualization tool seamlessly integrated into the clinical workflow, not limited to specific workstations.

The PCCG 3D package provides immediate access to a comprehensive 3D view of the entire image volume, improving radiology communication with referring physicians throughout the enterprise. Together with the totally integrated PCCG MPR package, the PCCG 3D package provides radiologists and referring physicians with an outstanding clinical tool for everyday use.

3D visualization - an efficient communication tool

It is getting increasingly clear that 3D visualization efficiently enhances the communication between radiologists and clinicians. This topic has been highlighted in the article "Fostering Communication" in the April issue 2004 of Diagnostic Imaging.

3D bolsters radiologist, clinician relations:

3D as a means to improve patient care

"Once 3D CT was perceived as a frivolous add-on to impress referring physicians. Now it creates newly collaborative relationships between radiologists and clinicians. In applications that range from aortic aneurysm grafts to routine of abdominal scans in cancer evaluation, 3D CT allows radiologists to communicate more critical information than ever before"
Deborah R. Dakins, Fostering communications, Diagnostic Imaging, April issue 2004.

"Fostering communication" by D.R. Dakins highlights how the relationship and communication between radiologists and clinicians benefit from 3D visualization. It emphasizes how 3D improves the radiologist's ability to consult with referring physicians and by this means improves patient care.

PCCG's vision when developing the PCCG 3D Package has been to support the communication between radiologists and referring physicians. The PCCG 3D Package provides and excellent tool to explain and present important details and findings in a quick and easy way consequently increasing the efficiency and quality of patient care.
