CAD workstation uses touchscreens

Software developer CADx Systems and mammography IT provider PenRad Technologies have released a next-generation computer-aided detection system. The product integrates CADx's Second Look CAD system with a Windows-based PenRad workstation. Touchscreen monitors on the PenRad system virtually eliminate the need for a keyboard. By using a client/server architecture, the PenRad system allows for multiple workstations and remote centers, as well as networking with other hospital information systems. Second Look provides a computerized "second read" of mammograms, highlighting potential areas of concern.
