Designed around the way
your specialty works.
Imaging service workflow: request → protocol → acquisition → archive → reporting work item.
Receive requests with clinical question, body part, urgency and patient identifiers; schedule equipment, staff and preparation.
Technologists document pregnancy checks where relevant, implants/MRI safety, contrast assessment, consent and protocol selection.
Send verified worklists to modalities, reconcile performed studies, store images and capture completion/quality information.
Manage repeats, cancelled exams, contrast reactions, external-image import and downtime reconciliation; route completed studies to radiology or the appropriate specialist.
Diagnosis coverage and clinical records
Capture reason for examination and suspected disease without presenting a technologist’s acquisition record as the final diagnosis. Imaging service spans ultrasound, X-ray, CT, MRI, mammography, fluoroscopy and nuclear medicine where offered.
Measurements that give the record meaning
| Measurement | Units / representation | Clinical context |
|---|---|---|
| CT exposure | mGy; mGy·cm | CTDIvol/DLP, phantom and protocol context |
| Fluoroscopy exposure | Gy·cm²; mGy; minutes | Dose-area product/reference air kerma and time |
| Contrast administration | mL; mg iodine/mL where relevant | Agent, batch, route, rate and reaction |
| MRI/acquisition parameters | sequence-specific units | Scanner, protocol/version and safety conditions |
| Radiopharmaceutical activity | MBq | Agent, calibration time and administered activity |
| Image/acquisition identity | UID; timestamps | Study, series, instance and accession |
| Quality/repeat flags | categorical | Reason, affected series and operator |
Equipment and integration plans
- PACS/VNA, modality worklist, DICOM storage, MPPS and dose SR where supported; DICOMweb services where supplied by archive.
- Portable ultrasound and point-of-care imaging require explicit patient matching; scanner DICOM support does not guarantee every worklist, measurement or dose feature.
Connections require an approved interface and testing against the installed manufacturer, model and software. Listed equipment is a candidate integration target.

Order-to-scan time, modality utilization with staffed-hours denominator, repeat rate by reason and unarchived-study backlog.
Development scope and clinical validation
Initial scope
Scheduling, safety forms, accession, image archive links and acquisition status.
Advanced scope
Worklist/MPPS, dose analytics and enterprise image exchange.
Example acceptance scenarios
- Wrong-patient or unmatched accession images enter a reconciliation queue rather than auto-attaching by patient name.
- Failed archive transfer must remain visible until receipt is confirmed; local image retention cannot be cleared prematurely.
