Is Aurabox a PACS?

While Aurabox has many similarities with a PACS system, Aurabox is not a PACS. In fact it's more like an EMR or clinical workflow tool.

PACS tools are usually used by creators of medical imaging to index all the imaging in their system and aggregate imaging from their modalities. They store lists of Studies.

In contrast, Aurabox is a patient-centric system that allows treating doctors to access medical imaging from anywhere, share patients and their imaging, and collaborate on complex care.

Features

Aurabox is not a PACS, it is a platform for accessing and collaborating on patient imaging. However, there are some similarities...

Aurabox

Aurabox is a cloud-based, patient-centric, clinical workflow platform for obtaining, storing, viewing and collaborating on medical imaging.

‍

Aurabox allows you to...

  • Retrieve imaging from any medical imaging practice
  • Aggregate medical imaging from multiple PACS in a single location
  • View in full DICOM resolution
  • Share a full patient imaging record with any medical professional anywhere
  • Also store pathology imaging, reports, and other documents

PACS

A Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) is a study-centric computer system for storing and reviewing DICOM studies, usually on-premises.

‍

A PACS enables you to...

  • Acquire medical imaging directly from modalities such as ultrasound or CT
  • Index the medical imaging for your practice
  • Report on medical imaging or send to a RIS for reporting
  • Store medical imaging that your practice has created

Using Aurabox with PACS

By utilising Aurabox alongside or instead of a PACS, you can get access to medical imaging for patients regardless of where they were imaged, all on the one platform.

Aurabox connects doctors, hospitals, and medical imaging practices to provide a network of patient data. Aurabox also allows patients to access data and take control of their health information.
