EIZO Releases Free Application for Accurately Displaying Medical Images on the iPad

RadiCS MobileHakusan, Japan, May 31, 2013 – EIZO Corporation (TSE: 6737) announced the release of RadiCS Mobile, a quality control application for Apple iPads compatible with viewer applications that use EIZO DICOM Framework software.

Medical images are increasingly being viewed on the iPad and other tablet devices in medical facilities. However, the image quality of these devices is not optimized to display medical images. In order to more accurately display images on the iPad or the iPad mini, EIZO has developed two software solutions – RadiCS Mobile and EIZO DICOM Framework.

RadiCS Mobile is a quality control application for detecting changes in the image display of iPads and performing adjustment accordingly. The application is available for free from the Apple App Store. RadiCS Mobile is compatible with viewer applications that use EIZO DICOM Framework.

EIZO DICOM Framework is software made for developers of image viewer applications. It makes it possible to display medical images that approximate DICOM Part 14* international standards using an iPad. The software is programmed for DICOM Part 14 support and can be integrated into viewer application content for DICOM Part 14 compliance. A viewer application that uses EIZO DICOM Framework can be used with RadiCS Mobile for accurately displaying medical images in accordance with DICOM Part 14 standards.

EIZO will be demonstrating RadiCS Mobile at booth #620 at the Society of Imaging Informatics in Medicine (SIIM) from June 6-9, 2013 at Gaylord Texan Resort, Grapevine-Dallas, Texas (USA).
