Viztek Launches New DR Product Line

Viztek, the digital radiology solution provider, has officially launched a new DR campaign in partnership with Samsung Mobile Display. Viztek has successfully installed the first several units across the nation both using Cesium (CsI) and Gadolinium (GdOS) technology; coupling the DR technology with Viztek's proprietary software.

Viztek President, Joe Cermin, says, "Viztek is very excited to start our Samsung Mobile Display DR retrofit initiative. Thus far it has been extremely successful and we look forward to its continued success." Cermin adds, "Viztek has always served the fast developing tiers of the healthcare market, ranging from small hospitals to private practices, including niche markets like chiropractic and veterinary. This new product line really appears to be the best-fit market for the Viztek-Samsung Mobile Display relationship to flourish. Our software technology coupled with the DR technology offered by Samsung Mobile Display creates a low-cost, high-quality means to upgrade to digital or to phase out older digital solutions."

Doctors' Care Family Medical Services out of Gadsden, Alabama is one of Viztek's early adopters for the Samsung Mobile Display DR and PACS solutions. Doctor's Care purchased the Viztek DR solution as a CR replacement; the 27 year old family care practice is currently performing 30 x-rays a day. Dr. Roger Buck of Doctor's Care explains, "Not having to handle cassettes and wait on scanners offers a significant improvement. The quality of the DR images has improved so dramatically that the diagnostic yield has also noticeably improved. We're very pleased with the performance."
