Mountain View, CA, October 2, 2004
IMPAC Medical Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:IMPCE), a leading provider of information technology solutions for oncology care announced today the introduction of MOSAIQ™, its next generation image-enabled electronic medical record (EMR) specialized for cancer care. MOSAIQ is the essential component of IMPAC’s newly expanded oncology management system. More than a central repository for patient data and images, MOSAIQ is an active clinical tool that can be configured to support computerized physician order entry (CPOE), customizable assessments, document and image management, full DICOM-RT services for PACS implementation, and capabilities to enable adaptive radiotherapy.

“MOSAIQ is based on a new architecture and offers unmatched flexibility and efficiency in managing the nuances of both radiation and medical oncology” said Joseph K. Jachinowski, president and CEO of IMPAC Medical Systems, Inc. “The key aspect of the MOSAIQ architecture is the seamless integration of patient images into the oncology chart, which provides a more complete picture of cancer care.”

“When configured for radiation oncology, MOSAIQ connects to virtually any planning, imaging, or treatment device, eliminating the forced dependency on any single equipment vendor and providing an EMR-centric means of managing quality patient care for a truly paperless and filmless operating environment. Additionally, our integration enables the efficient delivery of image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT),” added Jachinowski.
