Contrary to speculation that GE Medical Systems acquisition of Applicare Medical Imaging would impact the Dutch PACS firms OEM distribution relationships (
PNN
6/99), Applicare has extended its PACS software supply contract with key partner Picker International through 2004. Cleveland-based Picker has been integrating Applicares RadWorks software into its PACS since 1997 and plans to continue beta testing RadWorks 5.0 with such institutions as the University of Utah and the University of Wisconsin.
