ALI Technologies continues to grow beyond its traditional role as an ultrasound miniPACS supplier. The Richmond, BC-based firm has introduced ALI UltraPACS NT Version 4, an image management system that can support major medical image modalities.

ALI's UltraPACS will also connect two of Tower Radiology's imaging centers, creating a single imaging network with a common clinical database.
Since introducing its UltraPACS system, ALI has installed units at approximately 200 sites worldwide. In other ALI news, the company has received a 1998 Canada Export Award. The awards recognize Canadian firms that have successfully exported their products and services.
