We’re thrilled to announce a major AdvaPACS release packed with powerful new features designed to enhance data security, streamline workflows, and improve accessibility for all users.

AdvaPACS now offers Immutable Storage Rules, providing an extra layer of protection for your critical medical imaging data. This feature allows administrators to create rules that prevent the deletion of uploaded images until the defined retention period has expired.

• Guaranteed data integrity: Safeguard your data against accidental or malicious deletion, ensuring its availability for future reference.
• Enhanced compliance: Meet regulatory requirements for data retention with ease.
• Peace of mind: Rest assured that your valuable data is protected and readily available when needed.

This feature is ideal for disaster recovery planning and for any organisation prioritising long-term data preservation and compliance.

Introducing Data Sets, a new feature that enables the storage of the same study multiple times within the PACS, each within a separate data set. This capability opens up a world of possibilities for data organisation and access control.

• Streamlined disaster recovery and business continuity planning: Create redundant data sets for enhanced data protection and recovery in case of emergencies.
• Granular access control: Apply specific permissions at the data set level, ensuring that sensitive information is only accessible to authorised personnel.
• Improved research workflows: Group studies together logically for academic and research purposes, facilitating collaboration and analysis.

Data Sets offer unparallelled flexibility and control, making AdvaPACS even more powerful for diverse use cases.

We’ve also made significant improvements to validation modes and duplicate handling, further streamlining your workflows:

• New validation modes: “Attempt Validation or Generate” and “Attempt Validation or Override” provide automated fallback options if order information is missing, ensuring smooth and efficient processing.
• Configurable duplicate handling: Control the behaviour of the system when duplicate images are uploaded, with options to ignore, overwrite, or retain both instances.

These enhancements provide greater flexibility and control over your data, allowing you to tailor AdvaPACS to your specific needs and preferences

Managing uploads is now easier than ever with the addition of the “Retry Now” button in the Upload Queue. This feature allows you to instantly retry the upload of any study that has experienced a network connectivity issue, ensuring timely and efficient data transfer.

This latest AdvaPACS release is a testament to our commitment to providing innovative solutions that meet the evolving needs of our users. We’re confident that these new features will enhance your experience and help you achieve your goals.

Stay tuned for more updates and exciting new features in the near future!
