OFFSITE FILM STORAGE AND MANAGEMENT

Dissimilar image formats slow services delivery, increase costs

As healthcare providers and diagnostic imaging centers invest in PACS imaging systems, radiology workflows must be adjusted to integrate digital image systems with historical film libraries. Radiologists must read dissimilar image formats and compare prior films with digitally captured images – slowing procedures and adding complexity and cost.
