Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) School of Dental Medicine is now using the Infinitt Dental PACS to enhance dental research, patient care, and student training.
The school's decision to invest in a picture archiving communication system (PACS) was based on a desire to transition to a filmless and paperless workflow and to expose students, residents, and faculty to digital imaging technology, according to Sorin Teich, DMD, MBA, and associate professor and the director of clinical operations at the dental school.
After looking at other dental PACS, CWRU selected Infinitt's Dental PACS for its Web-based architecture and because Infinitt was willing to customize the system to support the school's integration requirements, he added.
The system is now integrated with the school's electronic health record (EHR) system and supports cone-beam CT and all dental imaging modalities, including panoramic and intraoral sensors. The school chose to implement the system across all departments at once rather than incrementally so it could be completely electronic, have access to images from anywhere and retrieve older images easily for comparison, Dr. Teich noted.
