Canon imagePRESS C1+ Color Digital Printer and Virtual Imaging Cypher
DICOM Print Solution Produce High-Quality Paper Prints and Reduce Costs
Making it easier and more affordable for healthcare professionals to
produce high-quality prints, Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital
imaging technologies, will showcase the Canon imagePRESS C1+ color
printing solution with Virtual Imaging’s Cypher DICOM Print Solution1
at the American Healthcare Radiology Administrators (AHRA) 2009
Annual Meeting and Exposition at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center in
Las Vegas (August 10th – 12th, booth #409).
The imagePRESS C1+ color printing solution produces high quality color
prints for healthcare professionals looking for a cost effective way to
add value and introduce new capabilities in environments where quality
is a critical factor in relaying messages and presenting data.
When combined with Cypher and utilized with Canon’s advanced portable
and general digital radiography (DR) systems and solutions or other
modalities, the imagePRESS C1+ color printing solution can produce
high-quality paper prints with outstanding image quality and vibrant
colors from any DICOM2 modality with a Print SCU capability.
Although the prints are not intended for diagnostic purposes, the
imagePRESS C1+ color printing solution is specifically designed for
print environments that require high levels of accuracy, detail and
consistency in image reproduction. The imagePRESS C1+ color printing
solution with CYPHER can support multiple DICOM compliant modalities and
PACS systems without the complexities of a dedicated printing solution
for each modality. By printing secondary copies on paper rather than
film, this print on demand solution eliminates the costs and time
associated with the developing process, helping support quicker patient
turnaround time.
"As medical images are produced in digital formats, filmless imaging has
created a growing demand for hard copies," said Sam Yoshida, vice
president and general manager, Imaging Systems Group, Canon U.S.A.
