1 CATELLA LAB When you are ready to take your dental lab digital…we can help. There's a lot of talk about digital imaging. It's no longer a debate about whether you should move away from film or if the proper digital imaging technology exists, but rather when and how. If you wait, will prices drop significantly? If you wait, will there be a new breakthrough in technology? Until now the big question was how you could store, distribute, and share these images with patients and referring dentists in an organized and cost-effective manner. Also important was how such a system could be installed and how personnel could be trained quickly and without major disruption to your center. The Answer is Catella. ® Catella-LAB is our answer for a cost-effective, easily maintained PACS for dental labs. Catella-LAB takes all of the key elements of our large medical PACS solutions and packages them in a manageable size for dental imaging centers. You need the same functionality of a hospitalbased digital network, but not the complexity or the cost. More important, you need to capture a variety of types of images, convert them to digital files and organize them for distribution to your clients. Here is a list of Catella-LAB’s key features: Image Gateway - Central point for the receipt and distribution of all of your digital images. You can connect up to 10 DICOM compliant devices to MIDAS. Archive - A highly redundant and safe method for storing your images. Catella LAB can hold the equivalent of 25,000 14”x17” sheets of x-ray film. That's years of storage for a typical small practice. CD Burner - An automatic method to make CD's with client images for distribution to patients and other medical professionals. These CD's have an advanced viewing program that self-starts when the CD is inserted into a PC. Workstation - Our Catella-LAB workstation includes a high resolution color flat panel monitor ( a medical grade monochrome monitor is available at an additional charge). Our diagnostic software includes all of the imaging tools you need ( window, level, zoom, pan, annotation, measure length, angle, Hounsfeld units, invert, rotate and more). TM Catella-LAB (PACS Appliance and Workstation) Backup - Choose between two methods of backing up the same images that are stored in the Archive. You can configure Catella-LAB with either the included removable hard drive backup system or use our optional off-site storage center ( 6 months). Both systems can be configured to run automatically. Connectivity - to CR and/or DR technology. Diagnostic Monitor (SVGA) INTERNET CD Viewer Software Sample Digital Workflow OPTIONAL LAN Viewing -Add optional software licenses for LAN viewing within your facility. This allows you to use existing PC's or WIFI-enabled tablet PC's to display images in your treatment areas and/or patient exam rooms. (This can also support WEB distribution of images)
Who is American Medical Sales? American Medical Sales (or “AMS” as we are known) has just th celebrated its 50 year helping dental, medical and veterinary professionals take, develop and view radiographs. (In the dental field, we also have a sister company, American Dental or “AMD”). We are one of the largest manufacturers of x-ray viewboxes. You may have our products in your facility already. We also manufacture and/or distribute specialty x-ray machines and a wide variety of x-ray accessories, as well as products for darkrooms and radiation safety. In 1997, we began to develop a series of digital imaging products. Today, our PACS solutions are found in both large and small facilities. We have networks servicing 2,500-bed hospitals, as well as two-person specialty clinics. Our PACS solutions are known for their intuitive user controls and reliability. Our staff is known for its technical expertise and its superior customer support. AMS will give you a helping hand. PACS APPLIANCE & WORKSTATION The challenge you face going digital is different from the one faced by a dental office. You need to organize and integrate a variety of different imaging and data sources and produce a neat, usable package for your referring dentists. That’s what we do every day. We are experts in telecommunications and networking. And we can coordinate the capture of tracings, digital cameras, and scheduling and billing software to enhance and improve your workflow. As we work together to build your imaging network, we take on the role of senior coordinator and we are willing and able to work with your other vendors to assure a smooth transition. Film vs. CR vs. DR What does this all cost? INTERNET Catella-LAB can't cost an arm and a leg if it is going to provide you a helping hand. The base price is just $39,950. That includes all hardware and software, pre-planning meetings and interfacing with your modality providers. If you don't have CR or DR and want us to provide these, we can. Why such a low price? Because AMS has a wide customer base to support development of these types of products and because we write and own our software products. Most other firms offering products in this area are just “system integrators” who piece together products developed by other companies. That not only drives up prices but can delay their ability to address customer service issues. Design, development, support, implementation and equipment validation for Catella-LAB are all performed byAMS and its authorized dealers. 2
