Healthcare technology is growing rapidly, making healthcare professionals adopt new medical imaging software to share medical imaging reports electronically, and the most innovative software nowadays is the PACS system.

Why every hospital need a PACS system? 

PACS system is a medical imaging technology that provides economical storage, retrieval, management, distribution, and presentation of medical images, This solution is backed by the RIS-PACS (Radiology Information System) which is an integrated software system that manages stored medical imagery data archives. It enables users to automatically display digital radiographic images on one or multiple monitors.

Here are more valuable features of the PACS solution;

1. Image resolution and quality enhancement and maintenance.
2. Comprehensive 3D Image Construction.
3. Re-filming functions.
4. HIPAA enabling.
5. Digital dictation and document scan.
6. Fast-tracks assessment of radiology imaging orders.
7. Image sharing via the Physician portal.
8. Voice recognition
9. HIS and RIS via HL7 interface (with all major modalities)

Besides these valuable features, the PACS system provides Patients and healthcare providers with unique benefits;

1. PACS replaces hard-copy-based means of managing medical images, such as film archives. With the decreasing price of digital storage.
2. Allow physicians to manipulate the images in a way that allows better viewing and analysis.
3. Reduced radiation exposure as a result of less need for retakes of images.
4. Enables practitioners in different physical locations to access the same information everywhere.
5. Allows a healthcare organization such as a hospital or clinic to capture, store, view, and share all types of images both internally and externally.
6. Provides the electronic platform for radiology images interfacing with other medical automation systems such as Hospital Information Systems (HIS), Electronic Medical Records (EMR), and Radiology Information Systems (RIS).

In conclusion;

PACS system is your perfect medical imaging system now! medical imaging systems can store, transmit, acquire, display, and share digital dental images and patient information electronically for all sizes of hospitals and clinics across the MENA region.
