Healthcare overview

At medical and dental hospitals and clinics worldwide, doctors, nurses, administrators and staff are discovering the benefits of electronic medical record systems, image storage systems, and diagnostic systems utilizing Wacom's interactive pen displays. The DTU-1931A combines the large, easy-to-see 19-inch monitor with on-screen pen input functionality to provide a premium interface for medical system integrators.

A More Efficient Interface: Inputing data into electronic medical records

The move from paper to digital can be challenging for an organization, but pen input functionality will make that move easy and natural. Medical staff will be able to input notes and diagrams by hand as if they would on paper. Pen input will also reduce risk of repetitive stress injury that stems from twisting your arm when using the mouse constantly for extended periods of time.

Enhancing Communication: Improving understanding with patients and colleagues

The ability to draw diagrams, circle key points on images, and make quick notes with Wacom's on-screen pen input when doctors communicate with patients and colleagues is essential when discussing life-saving decisions. The ability to record those annotations in a medical record will reduce the risk of life-threatening errors. The DTU-1931A's 178-degree viewing angle also means communication and consultation will not be hindered by difficulties in seeing the screen.

Compatibility

Many institutions are already implementing pen input technologies via tablet PCs and other devices. Wacom's component division is the leading provider of tablet sensor technology to tablet PC and other device manufacturers. Because the DTU-1931A's pen tablet technology is based upon the same sensor technology used by these manufacturers, tablet PC pens and DTU-1931A pens are compatible providing easy integration into your institution's infrastructure. Systems and software built upon Windows XP Tablet PC edition are can also be used on desktops connected to DTU-1931A.
