Curve Image™ is a cloud-based dental image acquisition and management system that provides Internet access to an image library for each patient in a practice. It also provides tools for dental practices to manipulate patient images and both acquire and upload new images in industry standard formats. Images can be annotated and tagged, and are available for both diagnostic and non-diagnostic use. All of these actions are performed from a secure website, after entering user credentials, similar to other commonly used online applications. The system can be accessed by the user via an internet connection and does not require any software installation on the user's computer.
A freestanding, image processing device that is a component of a picture archiving and communication system (PACS) for radiology designed to be networked with a wide variety of diagnostic imaging systems [e.g., x-ray, nuclear medicine, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or ultrasound (US), as well as a laboratory or hospital information system (HIS)]. It does not contain controls for the direct operation of a diagnostic imaging system and is designed to receive, archive, and transmit data both on-line and off-line. It is configured to provide limited or extensive capabilities to further process, manipulate and/or view patient images and information collected from diagnostic imaging systems.
