Barco Receives Award for 3D Imaging Software

International growth consultant company Frost & Sullivan (Palo Alto, CA, USA) has awarded visualization specialist Barco (Kortrijk, Belgium) with the Customer Value Award for Voxar 3D, a range of sophisticated visualization software and clinical applications.

According to Frost & Sullivan, Barco's Voxar 3D (three-dimensional) software provides customers with the best value for their investment in an advanced visualization system for a picture archiving and communications system (PACS) environment. Barco's Voxar 3D software provides excellent value to hospital end-users who are looking to adopt sophisticated visualization capabilities as part of their radiology infrastructure. Frost & Sullivan granted the award to Barco because of the software's cost-effective deployment options, which provide unlimited access to advanced visualization toolsets and clinical application modules everywhere users need them throughout the hospital.

"Thanks to the sure-fire combination of value and user-friendliness, the Voxar 3D software can be seamlessly and affordably integrated into a wide range of PACS architectures,” stated Martin Bryant, team leader, Medical Imaging, Healthcare (EMEA), Frost & Sullivan. "With Voxar 3D, there is no need to transfer image studies to a separate 3D workstation. This capability has brought tremendous workflow advantages to many hospitals, which has enhanced the reputation and acceptability of advanced visualization solutions within the medical community.”

Frost & Sullivan also recognized the intrinsic customer value of the Voxar 3D product features. In addition to the benefit of a smooth PACS integration, the software has established itself through a dedicated response to end-user demands in terms of functionality. Because of the ease-of-use and intuitive operation of the system, users are much more productive when viewing and reading large cross-sectional image studies.

In addition, Barco received the award because it has extended the value of its Voxar 3D software with the introduction of two innovative additions to the Voxar 3D product line: Voxar 3D VesselMetrix was approved for quantitative vessel analysis of CT and MR angiographic studies and Voxar Colonscreen was approved for reading CT colonography studies.
