PARTNERS WITH ORTHOCRAT
Offers TraumaCad Digital
Orthopedic Solution
March 21, 2006 - ScImage (Los Altos, CA) and Orthocrat, Ltd. (Petach-Tikva,
Israel) have signed an agreement for the distribution of Orthocrat's TraumaCad
digital orthopedic surgical planning and templating solution along with
ScImage's advanced medical image and information applications. ScImage
selected Orthocrat for orthopedic workflow because it wanted to offer
a comprehensive surgical planning application with standards-based, open
architecture to streamline integration with its enterprise-wide image
management software.
"Orthocrat's TraumaCad is a quality product
with strong visibility and acceptance in the market," said ScImage's Founder
and CEO, Sai P. Raya, Ph.D. "Together with our full-featured multi-modality,
multi-department PACS, we will provide a comprehensive, user-friendly
digital workflow solution for orthopedic surgeons and allow access to
orthopedic information throughout the enterprise and beyond."
"Orthopedic practices are moving rapidly into the digital world," said
Zeev Glozman, Orthocrat CEO and founder. "By partnering with a leader
in digital image management, Orthocrat further strengthens its position
in the marketplace and opens new distribution channels. We look forward
to a win-win relationship with the ScImage."
TraumaCad is a comprehensive orthopedic application that enables precise
manipulation of digital diagnostic images and application of fixation
and prosthetic systems for comprehensive planning of orthopedic surgeries.
Completed surgical plans will be saved to the ScImage PACS archive along
with other patient files for permanent storage.
Using TraumaCad's advanced library of prosthetic templates, orthopedists
can digitally plan a full range of surgeries. The application also includes
innovative modular deformity correction and pediatric packages.
ScImage felt that Orthocrat's numerous unique features would combine with
its own advanced PACS and related solutions to create a system with special
appeal in the marketplace. Among these features are automatic downloading
of template updates, support for a full range of template pages, an intuitive
graphic user interface and a comprehensive range of tools, which were
designed by orthopedists themselves. Together with ScImage solutions,
TraumaCad provides all the tools orthopedists need to transition easily
and seamlessly into a filmless environment.
The ScImage-Orthocrat solution supports access to the complete digital
orthopedic work environment thorough any Internet-enabled computer. Commenting
on the relationship, Hayim Raclaw, Orthocrat Vice President of Business
Development commented, "We are extremely excited about the potential of
this partnership and look forward to a long and productive partnership
benefiting both our companies."
