Online Radiology Imaging Solutions – Simplifying the X-ray Process

Electronic Medical Records (EMR) systems are a far superior method of documentation in radiology services than conventional, paper-based systems. Computer-based technologies for radiology reporting offer a number of practical advantages, including:

·         Better report turnaround time

·         Collects and stores growing volumes of clinical data

·         Results can be instantly communicated

·         Creates and issues legible, well-organized radiology reports

·         Maintains digital images

·         Easy to track patient information like records, reports and images

·         Electronic exam processes reduces paper waste

·         Enhanced diagnostic accuracy due to computer-based decision-support tools

·         Protects data against intrusion and loss

All this is accessible through the most comprehensive web-based service for radiology providers available known as Radiology Services Online that offers medical interpretational reporting on radiology examination.

The key features of this online tool include:

Powerful search: A number of powerful search options facilitate the immediate location of a patient's records by name, date, timeslot and more.

Role-based security: Individuals in the practice can be provided varying levels of access security within the system.

Accessibility: Any-time viewing of radiology images on any PC equipped with Internet Explorer.

 Additionally, clinical efficiency is improved due to these unique features:  

• Once the images (plain film) are uploaded, the film can be destroyed because the images are preserved in the digital record.
  
  
  
  


• The system hardware (secure servers) is preserved from loss by operating in two data centers that are located in different places
  
  
  No more missing reports or x-rays! The records are maintained on a HIPAA compliant server for 7 years after which they are archived to disc.  

Flow of Information:

• The technician after conducting the xray scan will upload the images directly to the patient record and automatically forward it to the radiologist for reading.
  
  


• The radiologist will access the site and provide his or her observations and findings on the patient record which will get converted into a printable electronic report that will be permanently attached to the patient record.
  




• Once the report is posted (anywhere from 10 minutes to 6 hours after the exposure is made), the facility will have immediate access to the results on-line.
