Health. Car Visual Diagnostics picture digitalization and archiving systems

Health. Car Digitalization in Hospitals • Some main steps – Radiology digitalization – Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS) – Radiology information system (RIS/HIS) – CT; MR; US picture integration

Health. Car Digitalization in Hospitals • Radiology information archiving (HIS/RIS) – Low investments and grate decrease of working wolume • Lacking knowledge of PC burdens the introduction • Personel training with sophisticated and expensive technologies.

Health. Car Digitalization in Hospitals • Radiology digitalization – Image getting plates • Cheap, flexible – More rooms – Mobile X-Ray facilities • Personel friendly – Constant positioning – Digital X-ray facility with direct detector – Not all images are assumptive to digitalize (bones, joints)

Health. Car Benefits from digitalization • Modern radiology departement • Qualitative X-ray examinations, enduring quality X-ray examination archive • Decrease dose of radiation for patients and personel • Desrease number of displays • Economy of films, X-ray lab liquidation • Raising the productivity of (radiologists and nurse)labour

Health. Car Digitalization in Hospitals • Picture archiving and Communications System (PACS) innovation • Not just saving but everyday use • Good local network is necesary • Local IT administrator is necesary • Frustration of clinicists – there is no radiogram to examine towards light

Health. Car Digitalization in Hospitals • CT; MR; US picture integration – DICOM connection (extra expences) – Workstations • evaluation (CT; MR; US; DR) • MPR; 3 D and other reconstructions (CT; MR)

Health. Car Picture archiving and Communications System (PACS) • Primary capacity – Upgrading – Increase of amount of archivated data • Software – Time and quantity of data processing – Security and data protection (doubling) – Integration by RIS/HIS • Web – Local network (number of users) – external network - internet (user level access )
