An automated radiology information system.
An automated radiology department information system, serving the diagnostic radiology and nuclear medicine divisions, has been developed. Radiology applications are part of a centralized data processing operation which incorporates clinical, administrative, research, and teaching subsets. The radiology subset includes remote on-line ordering/reporting, automated examination census and statistics, an on-line audit trail/workload control program, and financial reports. The software is linked to other hospital applications. This system improved report turn-around times, decreased clerical loads, and provided better financial management.
