image management

With a library of thousands of on- and off-line slides growing by 1,200 new images monthly, chaos was spreading like a disease in The Pathology Department at Oregon Health & Science University. Until they found the perfect solution to help them organize, track and access their image library - Portfolio Server.

It’s more complex and expensive than ever to deliver seamless web experiences to any customer on any device, anywhere. Images are becoming the top obstacle to delivering high performing, responsive sites. View this infographic to see how you can solve the image management problem.

Online images used to be simple. In the past, they weren’t the focal point of a page — there were only a handful of images on a given page and all users were viewing online images on a desktop with dial-up. That has all changed. Today’s web pages are dynamic, filled with images and viewed by end users on different devices with varying connectivity. As audience expectations for rich web experiences have grown, so has the requirement to deliver increasingly image-heavy web applications. The problem? The cost and complexity of creating, storing, and delivering web images tailored for every device poses a significant challenge for businesses, but failing to address the increasing diversity across devices and networks will lead to a poor and inconsistent user experience. Current solutions don’t solve this problem completely.

Moving to a vendor-neutral archive (VNA) for image archival, retrieval,and management requires a phased storage approach due to the capital and operational expenditures involved.

In a vendor neutral archive, images and documents from multiple departments and on platforms from multiple vendors can be easily viewed in one place. Learn more about how it works and why it's important in this session.

Given the wide range of technology options available, it's important for healthcare IT executives to pick the right image management technology and approach for a long-term sustainable solution delivering the desired performance and ROI. This whitepaper explores solutions for multi-layered neutrality, a standards-based framework for unifying medical images and clinical documents across the enterprise and community.

An effective cardiovascular IT system is a must-have, not a nice-to-have for cardiologists and cardiovascular clinicians to provide optimal care and help improve critical outcomes.

Help optimize cardiovascular care with a single database of images and information from virtually anywhere there is an internet connection.

In today’s world, advanced vision technologies is shaping the next era of Internet of Things. However, gathering streaming video data is insufficient. It needs to be timely and accessible in near-real time, analyzed, indexed, classified and searchable to inform strategy—while remaining cost-effective. Smart cities and manufacturing are prime examples where complexities and opportunities have been enabled by vision, IoT and AI solutions through automatic meter reading (AMR), image classification and segmentation, automated optical inspection (AOI), defect classification, traffic management solution—just to name a few. Together, ADLINK, Touch Cloud, and Intel provide a turnkey AI engine to assist in data analytics, detection, classification, and prediction for a wide range of use cases across a broad spectrum of sectors. Learn more about how the Touch Cloud AI brings cost savings, operational efficiency and a more reliable, actionable intelligence at the edge with transformative insi

Advanced image analysis and computer vision are key components of today’s AI revolution and is becoming critical for a wide range of industry applications, including healthcare, where this technology is being used to detect anomalies and improve patient care. Due to a lack of integrated tools and experience with these cutting-edge technologies, however, deploying complete systems is difficult. Applications that utilize deep learning approaches often require large amounts of highly parallel compute power, storage, and networking capabilities, along with performance optimizations for faster data analysis. The Intel and QNAP/IEI solution combines all these elements in one complete system for scalable data management for hospitals and clinics of all sizes. Read more on Intel’s and QNAP/IEI’s real-world use case on macular degeneration analysis through high-performance computing, vision capabilities, storage, and networking in a single solution.

Virtualization is a sea change from the days of one image per physical machine. And the benefits are clear, from better hardware utilization to lower costs to easier management. But while the resulting server consolidation is a good thing, it only solves half the problem. You still need to ensure that best-practice storage management is available to both your physical and virtual servers.

Practicing good image management is important in any customer's OS environment, but it comes even more into focus as companies prepare for a migration to Windows Vista.

Windows Vista® offers a new way to deliver manageable IT services that are planned for security service-level agreements (SLAs), while helping to lower the cost of ownership, management, and deployment.

Application whitelisting used in conjunction with existing antivirus solutions provides a strong defense against emerging threats like APT and targeted malware, and also contributes to reduced operational costs by controlling the sprawl of unauthoriz

PC life-cycle management (PCLM) solutions primarily focus on deploying or moving an application or an operating environment to a new user location. Functions include packaging, distributing, installing , and updating an application or an operating environment. These solutions provide a certain level of automation and are certainly more advanced than dealing strictly with scripts. However, they have complex workflows and do not provide the highest level of automation. In today's multidevice world, where the average user carries three or more devices, this paradigm alone is not agile enough for modern end users.

VMware® Horizon Mirage™ is a layered image management solution that separates a PC into logical layers that either IT or the user own and manage. IT-owned layers are typically OS and corporate applications while user-owned layers consist of their own files and applications. The Horizon Mirage solution enables: • Updates to individual IT-managed layers, such as core operating system files and common business applications, without disrupting other layers, all while maintaining user data and installed applications. • Simpler backup by taking snapshots of layered images, enabling desktop disaster recovery and helping to ensure continued end-user productivity.

Spammers have now fired a new barrage of image spam using randomized images that appear identical to the human eye, yet appear to be entirely unique to most anti-spam software. Many of the changes to the images contained within spam messages are so subtle that they require a pixel-by-pixel examination of the image in order to detect the differences.  Read how Secure Computing effectively addresses this problem.
