Toshiba America Medical Systems has added image management, viewing, and archiving options to its cardiovascular imaging products through an OEM agreement with Heartlab.
The Tustin, CA-based company has integrated the Heartlab DICOMview cardiac PACS and image management system into its Infinix line to improve retrieval and archiving of cardiac images.
These images can now be acquired in the cardiac cath lab on Toshibas Infinix angiography system and then transferred through Toshibas DICOM gateway to Heartlabs DICOMview enterprise server for online review using the DICOMview review station. Images are then sent to the DICOMview image archive for long-term storage and retrieval.
The relationship with Heartlab does not affect Toshibas OEM arrangement with Agfa for PACS, according to the company. Toshiba continues to use the Agfa Impax system for all other radiology image management and image storage applications.

SNMMI: Can 18F-Fluciclovine PET/CT Bolster Detection of PCa Recurrence in the Prostate Bed?
June 24th 2025In an ongoing prospective study of patients with biochemical recurrence of PCa and an initial negative PSMA PET/CT, preliminary findings revealed positive 18F-fluciclovine PET/CT scans in over 54 percent of the cohort, according to a recent poster presentation at the SNMMI conference.
Could an Emerging PET Tracer be a Game Changer for Detecting Hepatocellular Carcinoma?
June 23rd 2025In addition to over 90 percent sensitivity in detecting hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the glypican-3 (GPC3) targeted PET tracer 68Ga-aGPC3-scFv appeared to be advantageous in identifying HCC tumors smaller than one centimeter, according to pilot study findings presented at the SNMMI conference.
SNMMI: What a New Meta-Analysis Reveals About Radiotracers for PET/CT Detection of PCa
June 22nd 2025While (68Ga)Ga-PSMA-11 offers a pooled sensitivity rate of 92 percent for prostate cancer, (18F)-based radiotracers may offer enhanced lesion detection as well as improved imaging flexibility, according to a meta-analysis presented at the Society for Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI) conference.
