Laboratory Image Management System

Descriptions

The agency currently uses Imagic IMS, an laboratory image management system that allows the acquisition, processing, storage, visualisation, presentation and sharing of digital images securely in a platform independent manner; thereby allowing data to be rapidly and easily shared across divisions and with external collaborators. Within the agency IMS is used by the imaging department for data storage, sharing and reporting and due to the server based storage equipment PC’s are not cluttered with large quantities of unbacked up data. Institute wide Imagic IMS has provided invaluable in allowing novice microscope users to acquire, store, share and present images captured from multiuser microscopes with in the divisions of bacteriology and virology.
