Raleigh, NC—Viztek, the complete radiology solution provider, has installed a complete digital imaging solution at Carolina Orthopaedic and Sports Medicine Center, P.A. of Gastonia, NC. A Viztek U-Arm DR was installed complete with the patented stitching feature, stitching stand and the weight-bearing stand. Additionally Viztek installed its Opal-ORTHO PACS designed specifically for the orthopedic market with full templating capabilities and the Smart Card quickswipe for fast HIPAA-compliant log-in and -out with a wave of a card.
The multi-specialty orthopedic group with six physicians and two physician assistants previously had two x-ray rooms. It transitioned to a digital environment with Viztek’s U-Arm DR in one room and a CR unit in the secondary room.
Chad Ghorley, Carolina Orthopaedic’s Practice Administrator, explains, “After our facility was up and running using our new U-Arm and PACS, we went from regularly using two analog rooms to sporadically using the second. The single Viztek U-Arm room handles as much volume as the two analog rooms before the conversion. Our throughput and workflow have improved, and our patient wait time has decreased dramatically.”
Viztek General Manager, Bruce Ashby, says, “It’s great to have an install like Carolina Ortho because it is using both our PACS and DR and illustrates the highest level of workflow efficiency in the digital imaging market. We look forward to seeing the practice’s continued growth and development with the new technology.”
