2.3.0 Release Notes
Summary
Version 2.3.0 software provides product improvements for
the Codonics
®
Virtua
®
Medical Disc Publisher. The software
is compatible with all Virtua (including Virtua-2) and Virtua
XR systems.
This document details only changes from Version 2.2.2
software. If you are upgrading from an older software
version, previous Virtua Release Notes can be downloaded
from the Codonics web site.
New Features
◆ Support for DICOM JPEG compressed formats. Virtua
receives and records the following DICOM JPEG
compressed image formats: JPEG Baseline, JPEG
Extended, JPEG Lossless, JPEG2000 Lossless, and
JPEG2000 Lossy.
◆ Compressed images can be optionally decompressed
to allow recording on disc with viewers that do not
support compressed images.
◆ For more information on DICOM compressed
formats and transfer syntax, the Virtua DICOM
Conformance Statement (Codonics Part No. 900-332-
007) and the DICOM JPEG Compression Technical
Brief (Codonics Part No. 901-183-001) can be
downloaded from the Codonics web site
(www.codonics.com).
◆
Support of Chinese and Turkish language user
interfaces.
The Virtua user interface—including labels,
button text, dialog messages, column headings, and
warning messages—are translated into Chinese and
Turkish. There are a few exceptions (job profile names,
label templates, and disc features) that remain in English.
◆ Support for DICOM Structured Reports. Virtua now
supports two methods for receiving DICOM Structured
Reports (DSRs). Virtua can receive reports stored on a
PACS or query for reports stored on a DICOM broker,
PACS broker, or MITRA broker. DSRs can be recorded to
disc with studies. For more information see the DICOM
Structured Reports Technical Brief (Codonics Part No.
901-184-001).
◆ Support of multiple DICOM viewers on disc. Virtua
now allows the recording of multiple DICOM viewers on
one disc. This allows the use of both general purpose
viewers and specialized viewers for auto and manual
recording, as well as Scheduled Archive recording. For
more information on using DICOM viewers, refer to the
Selecting DICOM Viewers Technical Brief (Codonics Part
No. 901-186-001).
◆ Special labels are available on the Accessory Disc for
international character sets. Labels from the Accessory
Disc can be transferred to the SmartDrive to use on
Virtua. Physician, Stethoscope, and Ink Saver labels exist
for Arabic, Thai, and Hebrew. Alternatively, users may
create their own labels; suggested fonts are Arial for
Arabic and Hebrew, and Microsoft Sans Serif for Thai.
For more information on labels, refer to the Accessory
Disc Technical Brief (Codonics Part No. 901-153-003).
Product Improvements
◆ Ability to disable an optical drive without removing
the SmartDrive. An optical drive can now be disabled by
a user with administrative privileges if it is not working
properly. Virtua-2 and Virtua XR systems can run with
only one optical drive. A Disable Drive function has been
added to the Diagnostic screen.
◆ Integration of OsiriX
®
Viewer, Clarity™ 3D Fusion
Viewer, and Clarity™ Viewer. These viewers have been
released independently on the Virtua Accessory Disc
Version 2.2.2 and are now fully integrated in the Virtua
Operating Software.
◆ The OsiriX Viewer supports viewing of DICOM
discs for Apple
®
Macintosh
®
platforms. For more
information on the OsiriX viewer, refer to the OsiriX
Viewer Technical Brief (Codonics Part No. 901-180-
001).
◆ The Clarity 3D Fusion Viewer supports multi-
modality fusion including PET/CT. For more
information, refer to the Clarity Viewer Manual
(Codonics Part No. CLARITY-MNLU).
