Phillipsburg, NJ - INFINITT North America, a provider of web-based electronic imaging and information management solutions, reported $8 million in RIS and PACS contracts for the fourth quarter of 2007 -- more than three times that in Q4 of 2006.

Charles Kim, Executive Vice President of INFINITT NA, says there are two major reasons for the dramatic increase.

"One reason is that we renewed contracts with existing customers, in addition to signing on new customers. The five-year renewal contracts are on our all-inclusive EIMS (Electronic Image and Information Management Solution) program, which allows the hospital or imaging center to pay for the system and service on a per study basis," says Kim.
Ongoing upgrades are part of the company's EIMS RIS/PACS solution. INFINITT NA customers who implemented this program five years ago have already had hardware and software upgrades to incorporate advanced features and address technology obsolescence.

"This minimizes any disruption to imaging operations and ensures the customer that their RIS/PACS will stay current with leading edge technology."

"The second factor contributing to the increase in sales is that PACS decision makers now understand the magnitude of interface and integration issues and recognize the superiority of our single-database RIS/PACS solution," Kim commented.

The INFINITT RIS/PACS is built on a sophisticated relational database that eliminates the need for an interface between modules. It is designed to streamline radiology workflow from patient registration to final report approval.

The single-database RIS/PACS provides on-demand image access and a dual online archive to prevent system downtime. It reduces manual data entry and the high error rates associated with it, while simplifying administrative and security functions.

In addition, the INFINITT system offers full access to advanced visualization features, real time system monitoring and embedded reporting, document scanning, digital dictation and speech recognition capabilities.

Kim says the increase in sales exceeded the company's expectations, but there's every reason for the momentum to continue building through Q1 and Q2 of '08.
