White Paper

Integrating Mac Systems into

a Medical IT Infrastructure

Final Thoughts

After 10 weeks of routine work on the new workstation, six radiologists provided feed-

back on the workow solution and image quality of the Mac-based OsiriX workstation.

•

Speed and stability were rated Very Good, especially compared with several other

(old and new) workstations used throughout the department.

•

Learning curve diculty was rated Average, although most colleagues were not

specialists in 2D/3D image processing and were completely new to Mac systems.

•

RIS and PACS integration was rated Good, and all the services needed for daily work

could be accessed easily. Users noted that online speech recognition on the Mac-based

virtual machine worked as it does on a “real” Windows PC.

•

Overall, users said they were satised with the Mac-based workstation. Only the

slightly inhomogeneous display and comparably coarse antireection coating were

cited as major relevant disadvantages for chest X-rays.

The OsiriX and Mac imaging workstation is a reliable, stable, and aordable system for

daily work in a radiology department. The combined solution meets the imaging and

display standards set out by international and German regulatory bodies and was easily

integrated into a Windows-based IT infrastructure.

Using a version of OsiriX that is certied in both the United States and Europe, we

implemented a solution that met the requirements of our radiology department

and featured all crucial imaging workstation capabilities, from complete major PACS

functionality to excellent online voice recognition interaction with the hospital’s RIS.

A World-Class Solution

The impact of ever-increasing image data sets promises to reach every corner of

radiology—from the largest medical centers to radiological practices and surgical or

orthopedic facilities.

To ensure that every facility, no matter how small its budget, can benet from

advanced imaging workstation capabilities, the Department of Clinical Radiology at

the University Hospital of Mannheim has successfully shown that facilities can imple-

ment a world-class imaging solution using open source OsiriX software and the Apple

Mac Pro platform. With OsiriX on Mac, we realized a top-performance workstation at

an unbeatable price.

Most crucially, this aordable yet powerful resource will enable medical facilities to

avoid disruptions in their workows, thus ensuring that every patient receives informed

and timely diagnosis and treatment—even as imaging data volumes continue to grow.

“ It is dicult for any single

medical imaging vendor to

match the blistering pace

of innovation that this open

source project enjoys.”
