Enterprise Imaging Platform Simplifies Accessibility of Clinical Data

By HospiMedica International staff writers
Posted on 27 Oct 2015
A new enterprise imaging platform from a major imaging vendor is being announced at the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA 2015) annual meeting.

The platform includes workflows, and tools to consolidate medical images, and facilitate the dissemination of a patient’s Electronic Imaging Record (EMR) within an enterprise. More...
The use of a single standardized platform results in increased clinical efficiency, and reduced Internet Technology (IT) costs. The platform also spurs innovation in enterprise strategy.

The platform was announced by Agfa HealthCare (Mortsel, Belgium) and it simplifies the creation of a single comprehensive patient imaging record. The platform has a modular construction and can be deployed in stages, beginning with enterprise viewing, storage, image capture, diagnostic departmental solutions, and a healthcare portal, and can be expanded to become a complete medical imaging solution.

The platform facilitates access to images using a secure portal, and specialized departmental workflows and tools for radiology, orthopedics, cardiology, ophthalmology, dermatology, and nursing care. The platform also enables real-time collaboration and sharing of information. The platform includes a Vendor Neutral Archive (VNA), and Information Lifecycle Management, increasing data integrity, saving time, and reducing costs. The platform also enhances reporting by enabling sectional reporting for radiologists, and next generation structured reporting for cardiologists. The Enterprise Imaging platform can also be deployed remotely as a hosted SaaS (Software as a Service). The platform consists of several 64-bit servers ensuring availability, and disaster recovery, and scalability, and be used in cluster mode.

James Jay, global vice president, Imaging IT solutions, Agfa HealthCare, said, “Agfa HealthCare Enterprise Imaging is a truly new platform: it is not a PACS add-on, but instead based on new technology. It has been a key part of Agfa HealthCare’s strategy for a long time, and demonstrates the unrivalled value we add as an enterprise imaging provider. But our approach goes beyond the technological: Agfa HealthCare acts as a trusted advisor and provider to healthcare enterprises all the way along this journey to assure a successful implementation.”
