During RSNA, the IHE has an image sharing demo demonstrating the application of IHE profiles with a large number of different vendors that connect to each other and RSNA software.
In this demonstration they show how IHE can be employed to enhance clincal care by sharing information under patient control using personal health records. Doing this improves radiation safety and facilitates radiological research and aducation by appropriate sharing of images and related data.
Implementing the IHE profiles should also reduce costs by eliminating the need of publishing paper and CDs or DVDs both for patient care and clinical research.
For links to the documentation related to this demonstration see my earlier, pre-RSNA post on this topic.
This blog provides information on conferences and novelties in the area of Medical Imaging Informatics (MII). MII has a broad scope ranging from the Radiology Information System and Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) to Advanced Visualization and Computer Aided Diagnosis (CAD). To find new opportunities in healthcare we need to look at informatics solutions in other areas to apply them into the medical field to achieve higher level healthcare at lower costs.
