NovaRad inks California contracts

RIS/PACS provider NovaRad has extended its client base in California, with the addition of two healthcare facilities, Preferred Diagnostic Imaging in Bellflower and CareMore Medical Enterprises in Cerritos.

The recently-added facilities hope to note improvements to the workflow of their growing companies and achieve a return on their NovaPACS investments within one year, said American Fork, Utah- based NovaRad.

The company said its NovaPACS is a turnkey PACS offering image retrieval, a full-feature viewer, as well as seven-year on-site archive with offsite emergency back up.
