Previously Only Available for Windows, Award-Winning Toolkit Now Available to Developers Creating Medical Applications for the Fast-Growing Linux Operating System
Built around a core of AccuSoft’s proven and reliable ImageGear Professional toolkit (see separate AccuSoft press release announcing ImageGear version 13 also issued today at: http://www.accusoft.com/news/pressreleases/100603.asp.), ImageGear MD extends that functionality by adding support for the loading, storing, and manipulation of DICOM images, including reading and writing of JPEG2000 medical images. Previously available on the Windows platform only, application developers are now able to take advantage of this powerful medical imaging toolkit for Linux, the fastest-growing operating system in use. “By adding ImageGear MD for Linux to our product family at the request of our customers, we have provided a solution for them to quickly deliver critical diagnostic applications to their end-users anywhere, anytime, on this highly-strategic operating system, said Ian Lee, Director, Customer Services, AccuSoft Corporation. “As more and more healthcare organizations move toward Linux, we feel that with this new offering, we are solidly positioned to increase our already significant presence within this important and burgeoning industry.” Building on nearly 20 years of imaging expertise, the new ImageGear MD edition comes with all of the advantages of ImageGear Professional, including full native Adobe® PDF support, over 700 imaging functions, more than 200 control parameters, and support for over 100 different file formats. As a result of ImageGear’s proven algorithms and higher-level tools, developers can dramatically reduce the time to prototype and deliver working solutions, providing them with a faster time-to-market advantage. By choosing ImageGear MD to develop applications for the medical market, developers can focus their efforts on solving business problems and not on managing changes in technology. ImageGear MD includes extensive, customer-focused support, and is protected by the AccuSoft Image Guarantee™, as well as tested against AccuSoft’s exhaustive library of real-world images. As a result, developers can be assured that users will not encounter problems viewing images from any applications built with ImageGear technology. Availability & Pricing: ImageGear MD for Linux is available immediately through AccuSoft, with pricing starting at $4,995.
