Hi Alexis,
3k is about the going rate for a DICOM license no matter what you are
purchasing. I work with a verity of accounts and it seems like the Ellex
is the US of choice. If you don't get the DICOM license you will need to
use a third party tool to bring the data into a Data management system.
This means the instrument DB is left with potential errors with regards to
patient demographics. Eventually DICOM will end up being a standard
feature on ever instrument that is created once the Ophthalmology
community demands this.
Thanks,

Hi Everyone!
Thanks Peter!
I probably should give a little more information : )
The ultrasound needs to have UBM and Standardized A-scan for tissue
sensitivity.
I've looked up units online, but I've found that sales reps haven't given
me accurate information about how seamless their "DICOM" feature is. When
we first bought Ellex's EyeCubed machine we were told by our rep it was
DICOM compatible and seamlessly integrated into Symphony (without needing
to manually enter in patient data) . . . that turned out to be inaccurate.
Their new upgrade is supposed to have this feature . . . for $3,000.
I'm hopeful that I can get a few reviews via the community here so that I
have other options : )
Thanks!
Alexis

Check out Accutome. Their B-scan is essentially a laptop with a probe
attached. You believe can send the file as pictures or movie. And the
price is right too.

Hi Fellow Optimalers,
Is there anyone out there using an ultrasound machine with DICOM
compatibility that connects seamlessly with their EMR and/or image viewing
system?
We've been using Ellex and are looking to purchase a new unit; however,
they are charging 3,000 extra to ship the unit with their new DICOM
update. I'd like to find out if there are other viable options. It seems
with meaningful use etc, this should be a standard feature.
Thanks group!
Alexis
