TIMS DICOM System

TIMS DICOM System - Your Digital Imaging Medical System

View Movie

Problem:

Hospitals and imaging clinics around the world need to convert their non-DICOM medical modalities to DICOM. Upgrading or replacing these modalities is too expensive, often costing hundreds of thousands of dollars. PACS is a large enough expense in and of itself. Replacing all of the non-DICOM devices for PACS connectivity purposes is simply not cost-effective.

Solution:

TIMS DICOM System, your digital imaging medical system. TIMS converts any non-DICOM medical modality to DICOM. The resulting digital study can be sent to PACS, recorded to CD/DVD/USB, and printed to film or paper. TIMS is available for a small fraction of the cost of a modality upgrade.

Yes.

TIMS can convert ANY medical modality to DICOM. This includes ultrasound, fluoroscopy, endoscopy, motion X-ray, angiography, nuclear medicine, MR, CT, and much more. TIMS captures both static images and streaming video at 30 frames per second. TIMS even converts to DICOM the JPG, BMP, and AVI images generated in pathology and dermatology applications.

Digital Imaging - With or Without PACS:

Most hospitals either have PACS or are thinking about implementing PACS in the next couple of years. TIMS connects any non-DICOM modality to PACS. Further, TIMS is an excellent solution for hospitals to "go digital" before PACS is implemented. With TIMS, studies can be recorded to CD/DVD/USB for soft-copy reads and storage. And when the hospital implements PACS at a later date, the modality is immediately connected to the PACS via TIMS. TIMS is the PACS connectivity solution.

TIMS DICOM Gateway Software:

There is also a TIMS software-only solution. This is ideal for hospitals that need to convert their JPG, BMP, or AVI images to DICOM. The resulting DICOM studies can then be sent to PACS, burned to CD/DVD/USB, or printed. The TIMS DICOM Gateway Software can also be used as a centralized CD/DVD burning station or printing station. Or it can be used to receive DICOM studies from DICOM modalities. Its major differentiation from the TIMS DICOM System is that it cannot acquire from non-DICOM modalities. And since the TIMS DICOM Gateway Software does not require the TIMS hardware, it is extremely cost effective.

Foresight Imaging Connectivity Guarantee

Foresight Imaging is pleased to offer you its "Connectivity Guarantee" for the TIMS DICOM system. Foresight Imaging will send a Certified Installer/Trainer to your medical facility to connect the TIMS DICOM system to a medical imaging modality of your choice. This TIMS DICOM system will enable your hospital enterprise to take an analog modality and turn it into a fully DICOM enabled digital modality that will be able to capture static and cine images. We will also connect the TIMS DICOM system to your existing network, PACS, and DICOM archiving media.

If Foresight Imaging is unable to connect its TIMS DICOM system, the system can be returned for a full refund of the invoice price. If Foresight Imaging is able to successfully connect, the Certified Installer/Trainer will provide on-site workflow training and will leave the TIMS DICOM system for use in your medical facility for thirty days from the date of the installation. If for any reason, you are not completely satisfied with the TIMS DICOM system at the end of the thirty day period, you may return the system for a full refund of the invoice price less $1,500, which is used to help offset a portion of the Connectivity Guarantee installation and training expenses. If you are completely satisfied and would like to keep the TIMS DICOM system, you simply pay the invoice price.

TIMS 500 - Static Image Capture

Recently released at RSNA 2007 in Chicago, the TIMS 500 is designed for static image capture only. It's great for a wide-range of non-DICOM legacy modalities and provides many of the same features found on the 1000 & 2000 models - but at a fraction of the cost. Call Nautilus for special pricing and quantity discounts.

If you need a reliable, DICOM conversion solution for PACS connectivity without the CD/DVD burning capability and don't forsee the need to upgrade to full-streaming video capture in the future, then the TIMS 500 is your best option.

Unlike other DICOM conversion solutions, TIMS can even connect with your equipment that has a non-standard video signal. TIMS can connect when others fail. We guarantee this connection with any modality and any PACS. And, because TIMS uses Foresight Imaging boards, you can be assured that the resulting images are of the highest diagnostic quality available today.

TIMS 1000 - Static Image Capture

TIMS is a DICOM imaging platform with all of the inputs and outputs you could possibly need to solve your DICOM connectivity problems.

TIMS is designed for ease of use and portability, and because it runs on a Windows XP Pro platform, TIMS is quite intuitive to operate. We have designed the TIMS systems with both the user and IT personnel in mind. While TIMS appears to be a simple workstation much like using any other basic Windows software, it is also very powerful PC with many configuration options. We will tailor the software to your specifications during installation. If at some time you wish to use TIMS for a different application or even on a different piece of equipment, simple configuration changes can make it happen. TIMS 1000 DICOM System ($13,995.00)

TIMS 2000 - Static & Streaming Video Capture

Convert ANY Modality to DICOM - Universal DICOM Converter

Yes, we do mean any modality including ultrasound, endoscopy, interventional radiology, nuclear medicine, CT, MR, X-ray angiography, fluoroscopy, motion X-ray, speech pathology systems, and more. Unlike other DICOM converter boxes, TIMS can acquire from any modality that has a video signal or has a monitor. TIMS can capture from any modality because of the specialized, high technology video capture boards inside the system. Foresight Imaging has been supplying these specialized capture boards to major medical vendors such as GE, Siemens, Kodak, HeartLab, Witt Biomedical, and more for nearly 20 years. This experience allows TIMS to capture any video signal. Other solutions are limited to only standard video signals or have to publish limited compatibility lists. TIMS can calibrate to any video signal and does not have to publish a "list".

Because TIMS is a universal DICOM converter, one TIMS system can be used for many different modalities in a hospital or department, providing that they are not in use at the same time. TIMS can also be easily moved to another modality in the hospital should the original equipment that it was connected to become obsolete. This is not possible with other DICOM converters that are limited by standard video signals.
