We don't have an OPTOS, but it would seem to me the lack of a timer on any angiography imaging device would be such an embarrassing oversight on the part of the engineers and programers that they would rush you a software upgrade at no charge and so fast that they would act like the omission never happened.
Just a thought. Tom Quoting Libba Affel <LAffel@xxxxxxxxxxxx>:

What software version did they upgraded to ? Was it an upgrade on the OPTOS camera, or just an upgrade on the review software? We have version 2.4.0.129 on the review software. Please let me know, and I'll pass on to upper management, so that we could upgrade it too. What was the cost?

Now, when we close the procedure on the Optos camera, it automatically uploads the entire procedure to our OIS/Merge/Symphony database with the correct time stamp for the FA, in order and high quality. There were issues before with the DICOM image quality but they were able to fix that too.

Our rep is not sure if that change will be in the new update or not. It's not a problem if patient is seen on the same floor, where we have review stations at most computers. It could become an issue at satellite offices, however.
