May 15, 2014 — Medweb announced the introduction of several new features for Medweb Collage that will further enable the sharing of information across healthcare systems and promote secure access to patient information from mobile devices. The EHR/EMR Gateway seamlessly integrates patient imaging and reports from Medweb Collage into any EMR (electronic medical record) via industry standards.
Medweb has announced new enhancements to its core image exchange and cloud-based archiving services that enables users to integrate in real time teleradiology events into an electronic medical record (EMR) using standard HL7 and digital imaging and communications in medicine (DICOM) standards. Medweb Exchange uses existing teleradiology consult implementations to create infinitely scalable systems so facilities will also be able to share teleradiology consults across multiple enterprises using industry standards. Medweb Cloud picture archive communications systems (PACS) service extends certified IHE-compliant image archiving to all sizes of medical practices.
Several industries have used cloud solutions for many years, but cloud computing only recently started to be used in healthcare. According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), cloud computing is defined as “a model for enabling convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction.”1 As more and more healthcare organizations (HCOs) adopt electronic medical records (EMRs), the cloud database has offered an efficient solution for image sharing, particularly in radiology where it is bridging the gap between referring physicians and radiologists.
If you are part of a health system that has spent months building and designing a new picture archive and communications system (PACS), it is undoubtedly an exciting time. Reaching the point of PACS activation and getting staff up and running is a true milestone. Once your company reaches this point, it may feel like the hard work is over and that it is time to take a deep breath, but in reality there is still much more to do and questions that have to be answered in order to fully support your organization during and post PACS go-live.
December 20, 2010 – PET CT fusion software is now available on a Web-based viewer. Medweb’s software can be used with its Web-based teleradiology and telemedicine applications.
Historically, fusion software has been available only on dedicated workstations for nuclear imaging. With the software, users can fuse CT and PET images from any desktop computer using Internet Explorer.
December 2, 2010 – A cloud-based vendor-neutral storage platform brings together images and metadata from multiple PACS and supports the creation of a master patient index (MPI). The Medweb Cloud can be used for any specialty-based telemedicine and information-management application, including teleradiology, PACS and RIS.
