Embedded Document Viewer (EDV) – Enhanced Integrated Reporting Workflow
The Embedded Document Viewer (EDV) introduces a unified and efficient reporting experience by enabling radiologists and physicians to view DICOM images, navigate prior studies, and document findings—all within a single interface in the OmegaAI Image Viewer. This enhancement supports advanced diagnostic workflows, and complex reporting needs while ensuring accuracy, traceability, and ease of use.
The EDV replaces the older document viewer experience with a modern, flexible, and fully integrated panel that works in harmony with the Image Viewer.
