Specialized tools for the chiropractic market include a proprietary “Unsharp Masking” image refinement tool that enhances the quality of the X-Ray images. Also included are measurement and annotation tools, CD-burning archive capability, and DICOM sending features.

Chiropractic Tools currently integrated into Opal-CHIRO PACS Diagnostic Viewer, assist in atlas orthogonal analysis by simplifying finding and calculations of angles of correction. Opal-CHIRO PACS integrated chiropractic tools can significantly reduce the necessary time to do atlas orthogonal analysis.

The software contains a digital version of templates used for analysis. By using provided digital templates and additional tools, a chiropractor can not only “draw” lines necessary for calculation, but also have all calculations done automatically without ever looking at the tables.

Viztek digital X-ray software contains Chiropractic-specific analysis tools such as:

• Atlas Orthogonal Analysis
• Gonstead measurements
• Upper Cervical Analysis
• George’s Lines
• Ilium Analysis
• Line Drawing
• Measuring
• Angles (Regular, Cobb)
