External study import becomes an increasing challenge for some institutions where external studies outnumber those produced internally. To address this demanding import workflow ETIAM releases a new version (v2) of CD-in, a small footprint application for importing images on CDs/DVDs or other media from outside institutions, into a PACS. Improved productivity, enhanced user interface for accurate selection, and extended
range of supported media are the prime enhancements of this new version.
"With each new release, we complement the software application with features drawn from field experience and user feedback," said Olivier Boulland, Chief Marketing Officer. "CD-in can be deployed at registration desks, in the film room or any other place where prior studies on media need to be imported into the PACS of the institution."
External studies are quickly imported using configurable matching criteria and rules. Patient demographics and IDs for external images are automatically reconciled to make them consistent with internal patient demographics and IDs. It significantly optimizes the integration of outside images into a PACS. It also reduces to a minimum the time spent on the import workflow while allowing for the flexibility required to handle various import contexts.
