SCOPE OF WORK AND GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS FOR MiPACS Dental Enterprise – Viewers EQUIPMENT PURCHASE

Background Dental Clinic in Lawton CBOC moving into Lawton North Dental Section and acquiring additional space to increase clinical access to care.

MiPACS Dental Enterprise – Viewer is a requirement for the day to day work tasks for Dental Staff to be able to capture and view necessary images to manage the oral health of our Veteran population. The current licenses have run out in OKC and are needed for the New Lawton North Activation. This MiPACS system is what is currently being used in Lawton CBOC and OKC. It is an approved system already managed by the facilities Biomed team and IT system. We cannot afford to use any other company of equal or lesser values as we are using this system currently and have been using MiPACS for years in Dental Service now. Biomed will install for Dental Service.

Project Scope Dental Service requires biomed MiPACS Dental Viewer and Licenses to operate equipment for patient care. This equipment will allow us to utilize software systems and products needed for everyday use in the dental clinic for patient care.

The MiPACS software is the only software application needed to capture images from nearly any device currently on the market. This includes digital panoramic/cephalometric devices, intraoral sensors and cameras, phosphor plate scanners, flat-bed scanners, and digital cameras. This system is required for the Dental clinic for the Lawton North Activation. This system is currently being used in the Lawton CBOC and with the addition of 5 more operatories and 2 surgical suites, it is necessary to have the same software transferred over and additional licenses acquired to maintain the integrity of the patients that we serve using this system.

The deliverables which will be produced as a result of the successful installation of this software system are: A tested and operational software tool free of errors and meeting the specifications described in the Project Scope Description, a complete and thorough user’s manual which provides step by step instructions on how to use the MiPACS tool for users of all permission levels, and a complete and thorough troubleshooting guide which provides corrective steps to users of all permission levels for all anticipated problems.

There are no current constraints regarding this project accept to meet the timeline of installation prior to the opening of Lawton North timely and efficiently.

MiPACS Dental Enterprise Viewer MiPACS Dental Enterprise Viewer is the only application necessary for capturing and viewing images. Its open architecture allows you to have the freedom to use any capture devices, while maintaining compatibility with industry standards. Find out below what makes MiPACS Dental Enterprise Viewer the ideal image capture and viewing software for any large dental organization.

Key Features

· Capture images from any device—in one application—the MiPACS Dental Enterprise Viewer is the only software application needed to capture images from nearly any device currently on the market. This includes digital panoramic/cephalometric devices, intraoral sensors and cameras, phosphor plate scanners, flat-bed scanners, and digital cameras. The original vendor's software is not required to capture from any of these devices. This provides a standardized interface and procedure for capturing images, even if many different brands of capture devices are present within a single organization.

· DICOM 3.0 PACS-Compliant and HIPAA-Compliant—Within a large enterprise, abiding by industry standards is important. The MiPACS Dental Enterprise Viewer is fully DICOM 3.0 compliant. Images are stored 100% of the time in the DICOM format, and stored via DICOM communication to the MiPACS Storage Server or to any other PACS Server. MiPACS also has the capability to query for patient demographics and ordered procedures from a DICOM Modality Worklist.

MiPACS has HIPAA-compliant audit logging, which records every user-action in regards to patient data and security. MiPACS also allows user restrictions to be put in place to prevent patient data from leaving the premises of your organization.

· Integration with clinical management systems—MiPACS offers seamless integration with clinical/practice management software. The viewer can be launched from another application, immediately displaying the patient's images, even passing permissions based upon user or group membership. There is no need to look up the patient a second time. This removes the chance for clinical errors that are made when entering patient data and reduces the time required to view or capture images.

Currently supported clinical management systems include axiUm, Boomerang, Dental Record Manager Plus, Dentrix, Discus Dental, Dolphin Imaging, Salud, Soel Focus, Software of Excellence, Spark Titanium, Quick Recovery, QSI, Windent, and VistA Imaging/CPRS. If your clinical management system is not listed, MiPACS can be easily integrated into any system.

· Retake tracking and reporting—the MiPACS Dental Enterprise Viewer can be configured to force users to specify a reason for deleting any image. The list of reasons is completely customizable and could contain reasons like "Cone Cut," "Overexposed," "Underexposed," or "Patient moved." Retakes can be analyzed in reporting software, helping you identify users that may need additional training, or equipment that may be faulty or in need of calibration. Deleted images can be backed up, so that constructive feedback can be provided to the end-users capturing the images.

· Image Manipulation and Analysis Tools—Based on the LEADTOOLS Imaging SDK, the MiPACS Dental Enterprise Viewer features all the tools you need to accurately diagnose and to improve the quality of images that are scanned, captured, or imported. Tools such as brightness, contrast, histogram adjustment, rotation, inversion, equalization, sharpening, noise reduction, and more are included.

The image analysis tools within MiPACS allow users to zoom, magnify, measure, and annotate images. Accurate angular, linear, and polygonal measurements are available, these measurements can permanently be recorded with the saved image.

· Import, Export, and Burn CDs—the MiPACS Dental Enterprise Viewer has the ability to import or export virtually any common image format, including DICOM, JPEG, BMP, PNG, CMP, Kodak Photo CD, and more. Images can also be burned directly to a CD or a DVD from within MiPACS, and a simple image viewer is included so that even clinics without digital imaging capability can view the images on any Windows computer.

· User Security—MiPACS features user-security controls to ensure that only the appropriate users can capture, approve, delete, edit, print, export, import, and more. The permissions can be controlled based on an individual user or by a security group assignment.

· Comprehensive Image Support—the MiPACS Dental Enterprise Viewer, built upon a foundation of the LEADTOOLS Imaging SDK, supports virtually any image bit-depth and has many compression options. MiPACS supports 8-bit grayscale, 12-bit grayscale, 16-bit grayscale, monochrome 1, monochrome 2, 24-bit color, YCBR, RGB, signed, pixel by color, and pixel by plane images. MiPACS also supports JPEG Lossy, JPEG Lossless, JPEG 2000 Lossy, and JPEG 2000 Lossless compression.

· Dental Hanging Protocol—MiPACS features a dental hanging protocol that can be customized to fit any clinic's needs. If the image mounts included with MiPACS do not suffice, then different mounts can be created.

Two or more series of images can be compared in their mounts, allowing you to view images of different types together (panoramic + 4 bitewings) or view a historical comparison (4 bitewings from one year ago + 4 bitewings from today). In addition, individual images can be compared together, even if they are mounted in different templates.
