Efficient communication - faster decision making and improved performance Through the application of audio-visual and ICT technologies, telemedicine is now having a considerable impact on many aspects of healthcare provision. Medical practitioners are becoming more efficient in delivering treatment and care to patients despite the ever increasing pressures on their time and skills. Oncology, radiology, pathology, dermatology, dentistry and cardiology are among the wide range of medical disciplines already using and benefiting from telemedicine, leading to faster diagnosis, improved care and monitoring, and improved training provision. Telemedicine Medical consultant meetings In the UK, The Birmingham Cancer Network is a vital organisation, providing a service to eight hospitals in the Birmingham area. The network consists of multidisciplinary teams of specialists who meet regularly to discuss and decide upon the most suitable treatment plans for each patient. These oncology, pathology and radiology specialists have chosen to conduct their meetings via videoconference. WolfVision Visualizers are connected to hospital systems, and their high quality resolution assists with diagnostic interpretation. Mr Richard Steyn, Consultant Thoracic Surgeon says Videoconferencing allows for earlier meetings and therefore quicker care, it can also improve treatment by permitting more consultations, which in the past, may have been impossible. The importance of the high quality of WolfVision s image reproduction in medical applications is shown by the new Diagnostic Cancer Suite at The Altnagevin Hospital in Northern Ireland. A WolfVision Ceiling Visualizer has been installed there, it s sharp, accurate resolution enabling the hospital s cancer specialists to clearly see and interpret the grey shades of x-rays and CT scans to assist them in deciding upon the most suitable treatment plans for patients. The high precision lens and powerful light source combine to make the WolfVision Visualizer ideal for usage in this demanding application. VZ-P18 VZ-C32³
Easy to operate - leaving you free to concentrate on presentation content We fully understand that healthcare provision is a challenging and demanding profession. That is why it is very important for us that all WolfVision Visualizers are extremely easy to use and do not impose any technical challenges on the user, allowing health professionals to concentrate on what is most vital to them - the treatment and care of patients. Training of surgeons Training of medical staff One of Europe s leading Wetlab specialists, WetLab Limited, use a P Series WolfVision Visualizer in their classrooms for the training of heart surgeons. The Visualizer allows the live demonstration of complex surgical procedures to be shown onscreen to the audience. WolfVision s reflection and shadow free light system ensures that all of the heart is illuminated, with no detail concealed, even deep inside it. Movement is clearly shown, and the high colour resolution reveals each and every detail in realistic colour. Kevin Austin, Director of WetLab Limited says The quality of the images is always impressive and immediately recognised by hospital teaching staff as superior to any other alternative. There is no doubt that the WolfVision Visualizer is by far the best for our demanding application. WolfVision Visualizers are currently to be found in many educational institutions throughout the World. At the Vöcklabruck Hospital in Upper Austria, in the school for general health and medical care, WolfVision Visualizers are used for training purposes by qualified healthcare and nursing staff. Franz Stadlmann, MBA, Lecturer in health and nursing says The Visualizer is used in anatomy and physiology, and also in specialised health and medical care, to present medical and nursing images, pages from books, and also objects such as wound dressings to trainee nurses. The Visualizer is an integral part of our AV equipment, and we would not want to be without it. VZ-P38 VZ-9plus³
WolfVision the company, the people and the environment The new company headquarters setting ecological standards Going green certainly is in fashion and corporate social responsibility is on everyone's lips at the moment. Social and ecological responsibility at WolfVision, however, has always been a core issue. WolfVision is a family company, and full awareness of subsequent generations and the world that they will live in is, so to say, a part of the company's nature. In addition to the certification for quality management in accordance with ISO 9001, WolfVision also conforms to environmental management standards and is certified under ISO 14001 and ISO 50001. For a European manufacturer like WolfVision, stringent environmental protection directives also apply: Ÿ Directive 2002/95/EG RoHS Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances Ÿ Directive 2002/96/EG WEEE Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment. Ÿ Regulation 1907/2006 REACH Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals. For WolfVision it is a matter of course that the company's innovative strength enables it to go above and beyond the practices stipulated by the mandatory regulations. With its company headquarters building, which was completed in 2008, WolfVision has proved its commitment to environmental issues. The design of the workstations and working areas complies with the most modern of standards. The building has an automatic intelligent lighting system which is capable of activating lights in the presence of motion and low ambient light. The air conditioning system, which uses underground thermal energy, has minimal energy expenditure and is completely independent of fossil fuels. Apart from energy saving measures, such as reducing standby power consumption, environmental compatibility and friendliness are an integral part of product development. Taking into consideration the very long life cycle of a WolfVision Visualizer and the fact that more than 95% of the product is recyclable, it is evident that environmental conservation is a high priority.
