Avail Technology
Avail’s Procedural Telemedicine system is a mobile, interactive, end-to-end hardware/software technology platform that allows treating physicians to connect with remote healthcare professionals or medical device representatives and collaborate in real-time during live medical procedures.
The Avail System consists of a mobile Console that sits in the procedure room with high-definition pan-tilt-zoom cameras, plug-ins for external imaging, and a large display monitor showing views that are shared by the remote party.
A remote healthcare professional or medical device representative can use an iPad or laptop to instantly join a procedure and control camera and imaging views, annotate on screen, and communicate two-way with operating physicians.
