The exhibition will be held in Chicago, IL, USA, from November 30 to December 5, 2008.

Utilizing the Impax Scheduling module, radiology departments can expand their reach by offering the simplified order placement and appointment scheduling directly into the referring physician's offices. Agfa HealthCare's Impax Scheduling solution offers a simple and intuitive user interface and is highly configurable by user as well as medical specialty.
