LOUISVILLE, KY – 3DR® Labs today announced the successful deployment of its Strings Agentic AI platform at Vulcan Imaging Associates (VIA), a leading provider of specialized diagnostic imaging services. By integrating Strings into its core infrastructure, VIA is leveraging autonomous intelligence to provide unified monitoring and intelligent automation across its complex imaging IT environment.
Strings is currently monitoring VIA’s DataFirst Silverback® platform, which serves as the backbone of their image distribution workflow. This deployment provides critical oversight of DICOM routing, HL7 messaging, and automated study prefetching, ensuring that data moves seamlessly throughout the enterprise.
To ensure a high-performance experience at the point of diagnosis, VIA has also extended Strings monitoring to radiologist reading workstations running Intelerad™ and PowerScribe 360®. This gives VIA’s IT team the ability to maintain consistent system performance where it matters most by proactively identifying and autonomously resolving issues before reading workflow is impacted.
Key benefits of the Strings deployment at VIA include:
The partnership is set to expand shortly, with coverage extending to Intelerad server performance. This move will provide VIA with comprehensive, end-to-end visibility; from core backend infrastructure through to the final diagnostic interpretation.
