MORTSEL, Belgium, Sept. 25, 2018 -- At RSNA 2018, radiology professionals will discover intelligent radiography powered by MUSICA, at Agfa's booth. Developed in close cooperation with technologists, the MUSICA Workstation reflects Agfa's commitment to putting intelligence into the hands of imaging departments, to help optimize productivity and patient care. Being the "nerve center" of the imaging environment, it offers a single, intuitive interface for smooth, efficient DR and CR general radiography, fluoroscopy, mammography and full leg/full spine (FLFS) imaging.

Flexible and fit to purpose

The MUSICA Workstation has been designed to meet the needs and tasks of technologists, radiologists and the imaging facilities themselves. Built on mature, robust and proven technologies, it incorporates customer-driven innovations that facilitate flexibility and customization. Workflows can be easily tailored to users so that the most frequent tasks are the easiest to complete. Just a few taps on the touchscreen identifies a patient, initiates an exam, controls image quality, and more. Radiologists have fast access to images, comfortable and quick reading with consistent image presentation and a unique 1-click workflow.
One interface, numerous applications

Covering general radiography, fluoroscopy, mammography and advanced clinical applications like full leg/full spine (FLFS) imaging and tomosynthesis, all MUSICA Workstation workflows are intuitive and efficient. An new and refreshed user interface keeps the amount of distracting visual clutter to a minimum, providing a smooth patient- and user-experience. With a similar look-and-feel across modalities, it eliminates the need for special training, increases day-to-day staff efficiency and makes support much easier.

Dedicated exam protocols are available for dynamic imaging: both fluoroscopy and rapid sequence imaging. Dedicated mammography tools are optimized for specific mammography screening or diagnostic workflows. FLFS stitching offers a seamless body view, with minimal time-consuming manual interactions.

Diagnostic confidence, with MUSICA image processing

The MUSICA Workstation provides MUSICA image processing for all Agfa DR and CR systems. This gold-standard software offers diagnostic confidence, with excellent image quality and consistent images, meeting the taste preferences of any facility and for any specialty examination. "First time right" imaging, for any collimation, body part or patient position, helps optimize the imaging workflow, while supporting value based patient care and potential dose reductions.
