Contrary to traditional medical IT systems – where images are forwarded for viewing on local workstations – the architecture of the Insight ™ system gives distributed access to the power of a central server machine and the data on the server. That is, by connecting to the Insight ™ server, even over low bandwidth networks such as 0.5 Mb/s DSLs, the full power of a diagnostic PACS workstation is made available on a thin-client device or common PC.

This means that the installation of costly PACS workstations can be replaced with a highly cost-effective configuration consisting of an Insight ™ server and connected client access stations, with no compromise in terms of PACS functionality.
