MOSAIQ 1.20 provides some new exciting features:
3D viewing capabilities for CT, CBCT and MR.  As a integrated part of the MOSAIQ image enabled EMR, this capability is available at any workstation that can access MOSAIQ.  This viewer provides you with a 3 plane display as well as an 'open book' view to aid in slice navigation.  There is also a Review Mode that displays an acquired CBCT overlaid on the Reference CT. 

The new UI is also available in 1.20. 

MOSAIQ provides a new user interface paradigm.  The user interface brings together information from various parts of the EMR to a single configurable workspace.  It provides a configurable Home screen that allows users to customize a personal workspace for optimum efficiency; MOSAIQ's new Chart screen allows each cancer center to customize the electronic chart to meet its specific guidelines.

As mentioned previously, SYNERGISITQ™ and MOSAIQ Oncology PACS™ are in Beta as part of 1.20. 

SYNERGISTIQ is a combined and integrated workflow between MOSAIQ, the Elekta Desktop Treatment Console, and the Elekta XVI application. The SYNERGISTIQ configuration provides a streamlined workflow for kV image acquisition. 

MOSAIQ Oncology PACS is a comprehensive data management and storage solution that integrates data from the patient’s electronic medical record in MOSAIQ with archived images, plans and supporting documentation. MOSAIQ Oncology PACS is specialized for oncology and provides a single, central repository for data and images that are critical to the care of the cancer patient.

This release also offers new Clinical Trial tools and Clinician Worksheet updates including workflow enhancements.”

caBIG 2007: Clinical Trial Eligibility Determination using MOSAIQ

On February 7^th, 2007, IMPAC presented a technology demonstration at the annual meeting of the Cancer Biomedical Informatics Grid (caBIG).  caBIG is the National Cancer Institute's initiative to accelerate research discoveries and to vastly improve patient outcomes by linking researchers, physicians, and patients throughout the cancer community.

IMPAC and the Coalition of Cancer Cooperative Groups (CCCG) have developed a real-time, secure Internet interface between MOSAIQ and TrialCheck, the CCCG's clinical trial database.  This function compares patient parameters against those associated with clinical trials contained in the TrialCheck database. An instantaneous resultant listing of matched clinical trials is provided to the MOSAIQ user.
