While digital imaging has swept the country making it possible to take photographs with tiny hand-held cameras and phones, Teleradiology medical imaging that uses digital imaging has simultaneously changed the way that hospitals, medical facilities and imaging centres all handle their imaging needs. The advantages of using digital imaging over film imagers are numerous. They include the high-resolution picture quality available, the speed with which digital images can be produced and the lower cost for both procuring digital medical images and for handling and storing them. Many systems rely on a PACS system to keep medical digital images moving smoothly throughout the local and wide area medical networks, as well as on virtual private networks, and for enhanced, HIPPA-compliant archiving of digital images. When a RIS component is added to these types of digital radiology medical imaging systems the functionality of the entire system is raised in a number of important ways. The RIS unit adds the ability of the system to read and store text data with the digital medical images. Medical office processes such as recording patient intake information, scheduling tests and procedures, preparing reports, sending reports to all of the physicians on the patient's team and more happen in an efficient digital environment with RIS software in place. It is hard to imagine how the average medical facility could survive without their PACS workstations. By making the switch to a digital medical environment through the use of PACS / RIS systems, you can enjoy the full functionality that comes with being able to store, view, distribute and archive your medical images and records quickly, easily, and cost effectively. A fully effective RIS system is offered by Candelis with their Candelis PACS, and most notably the Candelis Imagegrid. The Candelis Imagegrid offers the full range of features that every medical office and facility can use to improve workflow and offer better patient care. Candelis Imagegrid combines the software you need with a state-of-the-art server that acts as a storage warehouse. The storage capacity of the Candelis Imagegrid can range from one to tens of terabytes, and can be sized to fit your medical facility's specific needs both now and in the future. PACS / RIS system such as this also make anytime access to medical digital images possible. This means that offsite consulting physicians, even those of different continents, can have access to the same patient records as you do, in a secure environment as outlined by HIPPA protocols. All of this flexibility in use comes with no additional personnel costs, making the PACS RIS systems very efficient, and bringing a smoother and increased workflow to your medical facility, regardless of its size. Jame is a professional writer with good knowledge about PACS System. He has written several articles not only on RIS/PACS systems but on various other technologies such as dictation software.
