Integrated Teleradiology System Combines PACS with Virtual Radiology Assistants

By HospiMedica International staff writers
Posted on 27 Aug 2010
New technology combines conventional teleradiology services with picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) and live support from virtual radiology assistants with radiologist productivity in mind.

StatRad (San Diego, CA, USA), a provider of teleradiology services, announced the introduction of Stat360. More...
As a complete teleradiology platform, the technology offers radiology groups a true, centralized work list across disparate platforms, multiple sites, live virtual assistants, lightning fast transfer rates, and an integrated reporting module with voice recognition. The integrated use of internal employees as virtual radiology assistants improves radiologists' efficiency by bringing a vital component to the workflow--the human element.

Radiology assistants are vital in optimizing radiology workflow by facilitating phone calls, gaining access to referring physicians, and acquiring patient records and images. As a result, there is no need for radiologists to hire on-site staff. Moreover, streamlining the reading process allows the radiologists to focus only on interpreting studies. At the simple touch of a button, from the clinic or at home, radiologists can request that an assistant complete various tasks, including pulling additional images or prior reports.

"It is our belief that equipping radiology groups with superior technology and services will enable them to compete in the teleradiology market without a large capital investment,” said StatRad managing partner, Joe Moock. "StatRad's core business is after-hours teleradiology service. We have found that many group practices, like any business, are looking for better ways to reduce expenses and increase revenue.”

StatRad enables their teleradiology clients to leverage the already installed Stat360 infrastructure to internally provide after-hours coverage and increase their business by providing remote reading services during the day.

StatRad's U.S.-trained, board-certified radiologists and staff deliver interpretations and reliable programs that increase efficiency and improve patient care. Their services allow hospitals and healthcare groups to save money, supplement staffing, satisfy hospital clients, and maintain control.
