Two Types of teleradiology may 2013
There are two main types of teleradiology providers: NightHawks and DayHawks. NightHawks provide preliminary radiology reports within 30 minutes for most exams and 10 minutes for strokes, with final reports issued the next morning. DayHawks focus on issuing final reports within 24 hours for most exams and one hour for urgent exams. While NightHawks allow radiologists to read from anywhere, DayHawks require radiologists to be located domestically. The document discusses the differences in services provided, customers, compensation models, and opportunities for collaboration between these two teleradiology models.
Picture archiving and communication in medicines ( pacs
PACS, or Picture Archiving and Communication in Medicine, is a medical imaging technology used to store, retrieve, present, and share images from medical imaging modalities like X-rays, CT scans, MRIs, and ultrasounds. It allows images to be transmitted between where they are acquired and multiple locations for viewing. PACS provides advantages like convenient access to images from multiple modalities simultaneously, images always being available, and direct economic savings from eliminating film and processing costs. It has components like input devices, image servers, display workstations, and integration with radiology and hospital information systems. While expensive, it improves clinical care by ensuring images are never lost or missing.
Radiology Information System (RIS)
A radiology information system (RIS) manages medical imaging and associated data through functions like patient management, scheduling, tracking results and billing. It works with a picture archiving and communication system (PACS) and vendor neutral archive (VNA) to store and share images. The Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) standard specifies how to format and exchange medical images to ensure compatibility between systems. A VNA consolidates images in a standard format to make them accessible across different PACS.
Pacs
PACS stands for Picture Archiving and Communication System. It is an application of modern information technology to radiology that serves as the file room, reading room, and courier of images and reports. PACS provides simultaneous image access to multiple users through a network. AIIMS uses two types of PACS systems - Oviyam, which is an open source and free PACS, and GE PACS. PACS allows for less time consumption in diagnosis and treatment by providing easy and simultaneous access to images and reports for multiple users.
