Technology Solutions and Standards for Teleradiology Information Systems
Dejan Dinevski, Andrea Poli · 2010
Since teleradiology processes are complex to manage, a tailored and robust information system is required to deal with them efficiently. The market offers a lot of solutions but these are mostly closed systems. This means that the integration and interoperability among different information systems and upgrades with new functionalities are complex and expensive. Possible solutions to overcome these obstacles are presented. Based on our own teleradiology systems development practice, we present the standards and recommendations that should be implemented. A good practice example from Piedmont, Italy, is briefly described.
