Enterprise imaging
Decoupling imaging data from proprietary archives so it can be seen, compared, analysed and acted on across an entire organisation.
Overview
Where imaging lock-in actually lives
Imaging is usually the most locked-in part of a healthcare estate. Decoupling the archive from any one PACS is what makes longitudinal, multi-site and AI-enabled imaging possible.

Where this sits
Every CAD CARE technology capability is positioned against the same eight-layer stack, so it is always clear what a capability does and what it depends on.
Product
CAD CARE DICOM Application Server
The imaging layer of CAD CARE PLUS. It sits between PACS/VNA and the radiology, hospital and imaging management systems above it, speaking Direct, WADO and DICOM, with report and URL integration back into the EMR — and zero-footprint viewers on desktop, tablet and mobile.

Terminology
VNA, used precisely
Two meanings, kept distinct
In imaging contexts, VNA is the Vendor Neutral Archive — a repository that decouples imaging data from a proprietary PACS. CAD CARE PLUS also carries VNA as part of its own product name, standing for Vendor Neutral Application — the broader platform philosophy across all ten PLUS modules, not just imaging. See the glossary for both.
Scope of claim
CAD CARE architects, integrates and works alongside imaging VNA and PACS environments, including its own CAD CARE DICOM Application Server for PACS/VNA connectivity. CAD CARE does not claim to operate a third-party VNA product it has not actually deployed.
Zero footprint
Browser-based, cross-platform imaging access
Delivering imaging and clinical viewing through a secure browser session removes the workstation-specific installation that keeps imaging trapped in the radiology department.
