Carestream Health has received 510(k) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for a tablet viewer option for x-ray studies on the iPad 2.
Those who have the latest version of Carestream's Image Suite software can add the tablet viewer option, while users with previous generations of the software will need to upgrade to gain access, the firm said.
Image Suite is designed to provide a flexible image acquisition, processing, and storage platform that supports Carestream's wireless DRX-1 systems, computed radiography (CR) systems, and an optional mini-PACS.
