Differences between XVCapture, XVWeb, and XVWeb Capture

XVCapture

XVCapture is a locally installed DICOM compliant application used to capture images and forward them to a DICOM server, which in most cases is the user's XVWeb site. 

In a typical, recommended environment, XVCapture is installed locally on each workstation and configured to purge local images files after they have been successfully forwarded to XVWeb. Additionally, XVCapture's primary function is to capture images, however basic image viewing and manipulation is possible through XVCapture as well when needed.

Depending on the Practice Management software in use, XVCapture is accessed via integrated bridge, DataGrabber, from XVWeb via interop, or as a standalone application. 

XVWeb

XVWeb is a browser-based DICOM compliant web application accessed via URL that is used to view, manipulate, import/export, share, compare, and edit patient images that have been captured via XVCapture or XVWeb Capture. XVWeb is accessed within a browser via URL and does not have a standalone application.

XVWeb utilizes a cloud-based DICOM server for image storage and is able to query patient records and images from the cloud at any time as long as the workstation accessing XVWeb is connected to the internet.

Depending on the Practice Management software in use, XVWeb is accessed via direct integration, integrated bridge, DataGrabber, or by navigating to the practice's XVWeb URL directly. 

XVWeb Capture

XVWeb Capture is a locally installed DICOM compliant application that is accessed directly via XVWeb. XVWeb Capture is used to capture images directly into a client's XVWeb site, removing the need for the user to access a separate application (XVCapture) when needing to capture images into a patient's record. 

Although XVWeb Capture is a locally installed application, it can only be accessed within XVWeb and not as a standalone application. 

Currently, XVWeb Capture's only function is to capture images directly within XVWeb.
