Faqs
Frequently asked questions
Optimizes workflow by combining automation, security, and simplicity.
Which EPSON Discproducers are compatible?
hCare burn integrates with Epson Discproducer systems (PP50, PP100, PP100II, PP100III, PP100N), enabling automated high-volume disc production. For lower-volume contexts or portable setups, hCare burn works equally with standard CD/DVD drives, maintaining the same workflow and production quality.
What differentiates hCare burn from ordinary CD/DVD burning software?
hCare burn was developed specifically for medical imaging workflows. It differs from generic recording solutions because it natively interprets DICOM protocols, automatically generates DICOMDIR files, includes a cross-platform DICOM viewer developed by our team, integrates directly with PACS systems and provides encryption to protect patient data. It manages the entire CD/DVD production process from the reception of studies to the creation of supports with professional labels for delivery to the patient.
Does hCare burn work with my Institution's PACS?
Yes. hCare burn integrates with any PACS system that follows DICOM standards, using DICOM protocols and configuration by AE Titles. It supports DICOM query and retrieval to obtain studies directly from PACS and also allows reception of studies via DICOM C-STORE. It is fully compatible with the main suppliers and PACS ecosystems on the market. However, if you use our integrated hCare PACS solution, you can burn exams to CD/DVD directly from this solution.
