Filmless Technology
The Hospital has a computed radiology system, which uses digital imaging technology rather than x-ray film, to record radiology images. Physicians can view the digital images and accompanying reports using the latest Internet technology. The Hospital's secure server, firewall protection, and physician access protocol ensure the confidentiality of individual patient information. The images can be stored on a CD, and securely archived as long-term patient records. This system provides significant savings in time and money due to the elimination of x-ray film, and the costs associated with film processing, administration, and storage. This user-friendly system allows for quicker reporting, viewing at multiple locations, and instant access to previous studies.
