This software supports the 2D, 3D, and 4D interpretation and evaluation of medical imaging exams. The Canon Vitrea server reached end-of-life (EOL) on March 13, 2024, and is therefore not receiving critical updates and security patches, and new software options are unable to be installed and utilized. Microsoft is also not supplying assistance if issues arise with this Operating System. For the Canon Vitrea system to continue providing accurate and immediate patient care, this server must be upgraded to new hardware and a new operating system with the latest Canon Vitrea software. Vitrea is a vital system for VA Boston patients and any errors caused by the server malfunctioning would result in severe delays to patient care. Scope The hardware, software, and services required for this upgrade are as follows: Hardware Upgrade: replacement server hardware for the Canon Vitrea Enterprise single server and management server at VA Boston Healthcare system to the latest available Canon-validated & supported hardware for Canon Vitrea Operating System (OS) Upgrade and SQL database installation: latest OS and SQL versions installed on the servers that have been validated by Canon for Vitrea Telephone Consulting Services provided by Canon: Installation to include data transfer from old servers to new servers Project Management PACS Integration Installation PACS Integration Project Management
