Visualization Solutions


BERLIN, July 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Visage Imaging GmbH, a subsidiary of Pro
Medicus(R) Ltd. (ASX: PME), announced today it has installed their Visage(R)
CS solution at Marienkrankenhaus of Hamburg, Germany, a 521 bed primary care
hospital, providing medical services for about 65,000 patients per year.

Dr. Denkhaus, Chairman of Radiology states, "Visage CS allows us to
post-process and report our large CT and MR studies without long loading times
or the need to physically go to dedicated post processing station. This will
significantly increase our efficiency at any workstation in the department,
without latency."

Mr. Koch, the CEO of Marienkrankenhaus indicated that "Integrating the Visage
CS system into our existing RIS/PACS infrastructure has added the performance
boost we needed to support our new 128-slice CT machine."

"Marienkrankenhaus has a very sophisticated and highly integrated workflow and
IT infrastructure and the seamless integration of our Visage CS was a key
factor for success in this project. We are excited to have them as our
customer and we are committed to support and provide the technology to
continue their success," said Malte Westerhoff, CTO of Visage Imaging.

"Visage Imaging provides superior integrated clinical applications, and a
clear commitment to evolving its tools and applications to meet customer
needs. The Visage CS solution has a strong focus on radiology and it also goes
one step further to provide surgeons, neurologists, and other referring
physicians efficient access to original 3D data, enabling them to perform
their own reformatting and post processing in and beyond the radiology
department," said Hartmut Schirmacher, Director of Product Management, Visage
Imaging.
