Is Softek an approved Philips API partner?
Yes, we have been working closely with Philips since 2007 in developing our solution to seamlessly integrate with iSite PACS.

How does Illuminate find data so fast?
Illuminate uses proprietary, patent-pending algorithms to gather, index and maintain the clinical text portions of all studies within iSite PACS. This indexing facilitates quick search results for the end user.

What exact data does Illuminate index?
Illuminate indexes all of the available free-text data in the radiological reports as well as the structured data in the iSite PACS fields.

What version of Philips iSite does Illuminate support.
Softek Illuminate is designed for Philips iSite PACS 3.X, and 4.X.

What are the hardware requirements?
Softek provides Illuminate as a turnkey system which includes all the hardware and software necessary to run Illuminate. No additional hardware or software is required from Philips.

How long does it take Illuminate to index the entire system at the time of installation?
PACS systems with 500,000 studies are routinely indexed in less than a day. From that point forward, Illuminate stays up-to-date with new studies flowing into the system.

Is Illuminate plug and play?
Yes! As a Philips partner, Softek utilized the iSite PACS SDK to seamlessly connect to iSite PACS. Just plug Illuminate into the network, create an account on iSite PACS for Illuminate to connect with, and you’re done. From the user's perspective, reference the plug-in in the iSite Radiology or iSite Enterprise canvas and start searching!

What staff resources are required to install Illuminate?
Your technical staff requirements are very minimal. Softek staff will come to your facility where they will set up and install the Illuminate server, back load existing data and assist with the initial user group workstation installations. The entire installation can be accomplished in just a few hours.

What will it take for our organization to support Illuminate?
Softek provides all of the necessary technical support remotely from the corporate location.

How much training is required?
Softek provides on-site training of key individuals and your organization’s trainers during the initial installation. A custom training plan is developed for ongoing training.
