What is DR Systems' Web Ambassador?

Web Ambassador is an enterprise-wide medical imaging and information systems solution for hospitals and diagnostic imaging centers. As part of the system, Web Ambassador clinical review software provides physicians quick access to exams and radiologist's "Voice Clip" audio summary with easy-to-use tools to manipulate and analyze images. Physicians can arrange automated downloads of the their patient's images and reports. All of these new capabilities can improve clinical diagnoses, disease screening and therapy planning while making it easier to communicate results to patients.
