FAQs about Collaborating and Consulting with Asteris Keystone:

Asteris provides so much more than a storage location for your images. We provide a simple way for you to manage multiple modalities, write reports, and share images outside of your practice. Customers who try their x-ray vendor’s “free” offer quickly realize its limitations and return for our more cost-effective per-study pricing.

Our per-study fees include:

  • Automatic updates and upgrades to Asteris Keystone PACS and viewing software
  • Technical support for Asteris Keystone PACS and viewing software
  • Unlimited offsite archiving
  • Monthly reports detailing archiving activity, including study and archive dates, patients, owners, number of images, and modalities
  • Offsite and mobile data access from any browser or platform through Asteris Keystone Online
  • Support for users who receive images sent from Asteris Keystone PACS

No extended contracts. Only pay for what you use. Cancel at any time.

For most customers, data is retained on our servers for seven years. However, this can be extended.

Unlike most offsite storage vendors, we will never alter your data for storage space optimization. If your data is ever required for liability reasons, you should be able to provide it in the same state that it was used for diagnosis.
If your local data is lost due to computer failure or other disaster, we can potentially have you up and running in a matter of minutes. Depending on your volume of data, actual image synchronization may take significantly longer but requires no client involvement.
