A Patient's Journey through Imaging Informatics

Refresher/Informatics

Presented on December 4, 2014
Presented as part of RCC51: Practical Informatics for the Practicing Radiologist: Part One (In conjunction with the Society for Imaging Informatics in Medicine)

Participants

Marc D. Kohli MD, Presenter: Research Grant, Koninklijke Philips NV Research Grant, Siemens AG

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

1) Describe the three major systems used in radiology departments and their function. 2) Provide details regarding the HL7 and DICOM standards including how they are important in radiology workflow. 3) Describe the function of an interface engine in a modern healthcare system.

ABSTRACT

Understanding how the basic systems in a radiology department interact to provide complete workflow is and important building-block for radiologists interested in informatics. This presentation will outline the RIS, PACS, and Voice recognition systems and illustrate how they interact as we follow a patient through the radiology department.
