ClearCanvas Workstation comes with an extensive array of tools for the clinical environment. The Premium Features are only available in evaluations or with the purchase of a license. After the evaluation period, the Workstation reverts to a basic mode in which only the base features are available.

Premium Features

Feature

Description

Available with Purchased License

Available in Evaluation

Hanging Protocols

Allows users to create and update hanging protocols (includes support for automatic hanging of current and prior studies).

Easel (Easy Image Selection)

Allows images to be laid out quickly and exactly the way users want, with the least possible amount of mouse movement and clicks.

Media Writing

Allows patient imaging studies to be stored on CD, DVD and Blu-ray for distribution to patients and other clinicians.

DICOM Print

Allows patient images to be printed to film for review (includes a "true size" option suitable for use with orthopedic templates).

Auditing

Provides HIPAA compliant audit trail on patient data access.

Password Protection

Provides secure Windows-based login for the Workstation.

DICOM PDF Attachments

Provides the ability to view and attach PDF reports to a patient's study (using DICOM Encapsulated PDF Documents).

(see note 1)

3D Projection

Provides ability to view any cross sectional series in 3D using maximum and minimum intensity projection (MIP and MinIP).

In-place Multiplanar Reconstruction

Provides ability to reformat any cross sectional series in the same workspace as the original study.

Digital Subtraction

Provides enhanced visibility of contrast agent on images by masking the pixel data with pre-contrast images.

Spine Labeling

Provides spatial identification of human vertebrae.

Standardized Uptake Values

Allows users to measure SUV using the ROI measurement tools.

JPEG 2000 Support

Allows the Workstation to receive and view DICOM studies compressed with JPEG 2000.

(see note 2)

DICOM Batch Editing

Allows users to edit DICOM files to perform corrections such as changing patient demographics and spliting/merging studies.

Multilingual Support

Allows users of the Workstation to use the application in their native language. (see note 3)

1 After the evaluation period, you will no longer be able to create new attachments. However, you will still be able to view them.

2 For data integrity reasons, support for JPEG 2000 is not available during the evaluation period (i.e. when receiving such a study, the server must decompress it first). To evaluate this feature, please contact Synaptive Medical.

3 The list of supported languages may vary from version to version.
