Jonathon Blocker writes about dicom pacs. With installations at over 450 imaging centers and hospitals; Dicom Solutions is one of the leading distributors in the medical imaging industry.
Digital cameras are available in cells phones, and because of their ease of use, everyone is now able to enjoy taking a picture anywhere they happen to be. Now digital imaging has come to medicine. Radiology PACS, picture archiving and communication systems, make digital imaging possible for your radiology department or facility.
In days past, you would take images using film. The films would have to be developed using costly chemicals. The images would need to be carefully handled and stored in large storage rooms, requiring medical staff to maintain the records, file them and retrieve them. Over time, film could become damaged and the picture could degrade. The images could be completely lost in the case of a fire or flood. These are all reasons why so many hospitals and medical offices are making the switch to Radiology PACS. With dicom pacs, the patient images are now all digital, and can be viewed using a personal computer that you already have at your office. Digital images can be retrieved through the use of a search feature quickly and easily. These images can also be stored in a fraction of the space once needed, and backup can be done both on and offsite, so that you are safe should disaster strike. A pacs system also allows for more accuracy in imaging. Digital images can be enhanced by using Radiology PACS so that the picture can be cropped or rotated, panned or zoomed, all with the click of a mouse. Brightness and contrast can easily be adjusted, allowing you to see more than you might have ordinarily been able to using traditional film imaging. Radiology PACS also allows you to distribute images easily by using the speed of the Internet.
Digital images can be accessed through a pacs system by authorized personnel from offsite locations anywhere around the world or in your medical office. Digital images can be sent ahead by referring physicians to specialists easily when they are sent via your pacs system. Many offices use a ris pacs system to streamline their patient scheduling and records. Ris pacs connects a radiology information system to the picture archiving system, saving you a great deal of time and effort in processing patients. A ris pacs can help your staff with patient registration and scanning, along with the entry of results and reports that are produced. Patient tracking and results delivery are all accurately accomplished via ris pacs. Smaller clinics may benefit through using mini Radiology PACS. There are web based, all-in-one units that are very budget appropriate for medical offices, chiropractic and orthopedic clinics. Whatever your facility size, Radiology PACS are available that can help you meet all of your digital imaging needs.
