Archive developer and medical informatics firm Candelis said its Astra Plus image exchange platform has been adopted by a Fortune 200 pharmaceutical company for worldwide clinical trials image and data sharing.
Candelis was able to customize Astra Plus to present the images using a hierarchy of clinical trials, subjects, visits, and DICOM series. Usually, pharmaceutical companies would store their images on portable media that is then shipped.
Astra Plus also provides a distribution channel to send images in a batch mode. This allows analysis partners to open and download large amounts of data without the need for user IDs, firewall rules, specialized software, and virtual private network (VPN) accounts, Candelis added.
