Imaging Network for exchange of imaging-related clinical data

An imaging network is an eco-system of connected imaging facilities, allowing the seamless exchange of imaging-related clinical data. As such, an imaging network is a Health Information Exchange, specifically focused on imaging.

Key benefits of imaging networks

Imaging networks support the key clinical processes for imaging-related procedures, in radiology, cardiology or any imaging specialty. Imaging networks provide the following key benefits:

  • Seamless access to all imaging related data – regardless of where the information was created, reported or stored.
  • Supporting the efficient use of imaging resources, such as imaging modalities and reporting capabilities.
  • Providing controlled out-side access by clinical partners, such as GPs, to imaging results.
  • Leveraging existing imaging investments, securing your investments in your present PACS and RIS systems.

Connectivity solutions for a multi-vendor, regional imaging network

Forcare’s software suite offers the key connectivity solutions to create a multi-vendor, regional imaging network, maximizing your imaging capability:

  • Through our standards-based solution, we create a central index of available imaging information. Access is offered through a web-based viewer – or your existing viewing software.
  • Images “stay at the source”  - taking away the need for expensive centralized archiving solutions.
  • Our solution is based on IHE XDS-I - Cross-Enterprise Document Sharing for Imaging, the industry-standard for sharing imaging information. If necessary, we “XDS-I”-enable your current PACS or RIS with our connectivity broker.

Forcare’s state-of-the-art imaging network solution

Our message is: “The network is the modality”.

By supporting the key imaging workflows, we turn the imaging network into one system.
