In my hallowed position as the Dalai Lama of PACS, I am occasionally in receipt of information that cannot be immediately verified. If I'm in a cantankerous mood, I will post it, although now in my older, more mellow years, I do so with the caveat that the stuff is strictly unsubstantiated rumour.
With that disclaimer in mind, here are some new tidbits:
First, word on the street is that GE has been unable to integrate the Dynamic Imaging IntegradWeb GUI to the Centricity back-end or to the IDX RIS. They are still trying to do so, but it ain't working as yet. Another GE purchase bites the dust?
Second, word on a different street indicates that Philips is developing a new PACS, centered around its XIRIS Ris product. It was noted that Philips hasn't done much to
Third, Agfa has appointed me head of product development. Nah, I made that one up.
Please feel free to comment with rebuttals, additional scuttlebutt, etc. No death-threats, please.

Hi,Dalai,
Sorry my question is nothing to do with the rumors. :) I just want to know, in practice, is it acceptable for doctor to zoom in/out one image not continuously. I mean, only the zoom factor say,0.5 1.0, 2.0,4.0 ... is enough in workstation.
I am a developer, this is very important for me to choose the memory model in programming.
TIA

Every system has a "smooth" zoom, and I would recommend you stick to that. Thanks!
You don't really want to move to Waterloo, do you?
From what i have heard from our GE rep, they have successfully integrated the IW GUI to Centricity, but some features (saving annotations, PIX) do not function.
