DICOM Router and VNA
Our Gateway™ DICOM Router is a powerful solution designed to store, retrieve, and archive thousands of studies per year while its intuitive DICOM engine provides unmatched functionality and flexibility.
Gateway™DICOM Smart RouterPower and Scalability, You Can Trust
The DICOM router is a powerful, scalable VNA that connects with your modalities and/or PACS and does so much more than store and forward. It is an easy-to-use tool that provides superior data management and HIPAA compliant security features. Build on the same platform as our PowerServer™ PACS, the DICOM router unifies workflows and decreases turnaround times.
- TLS for secure DICOM over the Internet
- Scalable
- Unlimited storage using Azure BLOB
- DICOM Field / Tag Mapping / Morphing
- Automate workflow by cleansing Issuer, Facility / Institution, Status
- Rules-based Routing

gateway™ Dicom RouterADVANCED ADD-ONFast, Intelligent, Flexible, Universal
RamSoft's Advanced option upgrades the Gateway™ DICOM Router into the industry’s leading solution. With the speed of multithreaded routing, the intelligence of DICOM scripting to automate data cleansing, the flexibility of segregating data by facility, modality, or custom criteria, and the optional embedded Mirth interface engine, this universal DICOM router and VNA can solve the most complex needs and can trigger on any DICOM or HL7 field. RamSoft even has solution templates to prefetch relevant prior studies by intelligently matching the study description from your various 3rd party PACS and VNA. If you have a DICOM problem, we have the solution.
Reasons to choose Gateway™ DICOM Router
| Key Features | Gateway™ DICOM Router | Most Devices with VPN |
| Security | DICOM TLS Encryption (faster); can be deployed in minutes | IPsec Encryption (slower); can take days to deploy by local IT |
| Retransmit Protocols | Automatically resend images in case of a transmission failure. |
Manual intervention required for modalities to retransmit an incomplete transfer. |
| Monitoring | DICOM heartbeat to monitor connectivity status | Difficult to troubleshoot connectivity without involving multiple vendors |
| Dynamic Compression | Supports multiple forms of compression from Lossless to Lossy Compression. | Compression techniques are limited to the functionality available on the modality(s) |
| Standardize DICOM Data | Automate processes such as overwriting, moving and deleting basic DICOM tags | Manually update DICOM tags and/or other data fields to achieve data consistency |
| Rules-Based Routing | Automate routing of studies between DICOM station(s) using predefined rules based on selected criteria | Manual prioritization of studies to be sent |
| Storage | Can store locally or on BLOB storage for expandable, georedundant storage |
Limited storage |
| *Automated Data-Cleansing via DICOM Scripting | Automatically cleanse incoming study data, on the fly, by modifying tags in the DICOM objects using in-built scripting tools | Inability to cleanse data on the fly, leading to accumulation of Junk Data |
| *Smart Pre-Fetch | Automatically pre-fetch the most relevant priors based on any user-defined criteria, such as study description (partial/ full match), Study UID, facility, etc. | Limited to criteria available in the user interface of the application. |
| *Custom Folder Management | Store and archive images using custom folder management structures | Standard folder structures to be followed |
| *Multithreading | Allows multiple studies to be sent/pulled in parallel, significantly reducing the wait-times for viewing |
Single thread allows only 1 study to be sent at a time. Increases wait-time for viewing |
*Advanced license may require additional setup cost
