Dec 3, 2009.  Wilmington NC.  Roger Wyatt, President and CEO of Tynken Interactive announces Signal, a breakthrough in technology that allows teachers to post class notes, homework, schedules and a myriad of other content to their web pages by simply sending an email.   All users need to do is type a code in the subject line, and the system directs the contents of the email to the appropriate section of their web page. "What is really great about this is that it turns the system on its head. What I kept hearing is that the majority of teachers don't have the time or desire to be web designers, and that they are therefore stuck either doing nothing or spending time learning new software" said Wyatt. "Now all they have to do is send an email, and the system does it for them.  This saves a significant amount of time, and makes better, faster classroom communication very easy. First we completely changed the way teachers interact with their web applications. Now we are bringing about a second revolution – allowing them to post to their sites using only email"

"I had been talking with teachers about some of their issues. One of the main ones was not having the time to learn software to maintain a teacher web page. In fact, only 10% of the teachers in any school create a teacher page when given the opportunity. They all said the same thing - "I don't have the time to learn a new system". Now they don't have to. This new system is unbelievably powerful. It is set it up to allow posting of just about anything - scores, schedules, menus, etc - in addition to class notes, homework, and the other class information" said Wyatt.  "And there is no need for training - they just send an email for the instructions and the system emails them the user guide - all 1 page of it. So the technology coordinators don't need to spend any time training the teachers in using the application - there's no training required. And there are built-in safeguards.  For example, if the teacher forgets to put a due date on the homework assignment, the system will not post it, but send an email asking for the due date before posting."

PACS-neutral archive and storage management functionality streamlines image data management, simplifies migration tasks, advances “meaningful use,” and reduces storage and archival costs.

Chicago – RSNA Conference – With “meaningful use” and “interoperability” emerging as key concepts in current discussions about health information technology, forward-looking healthcare leaders are compelled to seek solutions designed specifically to deliver optimal access to data generated by diverse systems across their enterprises, notes Tony Cotterill, President and CEO of BridgeHead Software, a leading developer of healthcare data management software.

"Nowhere is this need – or this challenge – reflected more clearly than in the field of radiology," he adds, pointing to the broad spectrum of imaging modalities and data management issues currently being discussed at the annual Radiology Society of North America (RSNA) in Chicago. “More and more hospitals are relying upon multiple PACS systems to capture and present images for clinical review. While vital to quality patient care, this diversity raises a host of challenges related to long-term storage, retrieval and access to images.”
