According to iCRco website, “With this app a radiologist can configure an existing Clarity PACS to mirror the archive to his or her iPhone instantly. This allows the radiologist to see the patient list, studies waiting to be read, and can decide whether the patient needs immediate attention.” I believe the iPad will make an even better medical viewer and apparently iCRco agrees. They have added “iPad” to their app store documentation.

Countdown to iPad Series – There are countless articles and posts citing what the iPad isn’t or won’t be good at. We think they are wrong. Join us as we celebrate the countdown to iPad’s debut by posting a daily iPad use case.

We have many iPad use case scenarios queued up, but could always use more. Please comment and share your iPad ideas below.

Instead of a face-to-face interview with your healthcare professional, they are sitting on the other side of the room, staring at a computer screen.

Meet iPad, the cure for the common cold shoulder. With iPad in hand, nurses and doctors look you in the eye as they enter your information. Office visits go back to be being personal and sensitive information is not left on unattended computers. The iPad travels from room to room with the practitioner, forgoing the need for them to log-in each time they enter the room.

iPad: just what the doctor ordered.

Doctor, doctor

Doctor, doctor

In Countdown to iPad – Teammate (Use Case 12) we showed the Pogo Sketch stylus in action. It is our hope that Ten One Design will turn out other models… with at least one fit for a doctor’s pocket protector.
