Healthcare organizations are challenged to provide outstanding patient care with limited resources while the medical imaging storage market doubles every 24 months. Mid-tier hospitals and imaging centers must meet regulatory compliance requirements and build a disaster-proof imaging archive, though the lack of physical facilities and access to capital budget are great challenges. Healthcare organizations need a more cost-efficient model for managing medical images. HP, the sixth largest software vendor worldwide, has partnered with Iron Mountain to give organizations a new alternative to disaster-proofing the growing volume of medical images and helping improve care delivery. The Iron Mountain Digital Record Center for Medical Images is powered by the customer-proven HP Medical Archive solution (HP MAS), a grid-based archive with factory-integrated HP storage and servers with indexing, policy management and search software. Since 2005, HP has deployed MAS in >175 imaging institutions in 15 countries. As the flash demo will illustrate, a simple MAS Gateway at the customer site will provide the connection for archive, retrieval, disaster recovery, and continuous access to data stored at Iron Mountain’s data centers. Together, HP and Iron Mountain’s service allows you to more efficiently utilize physical space and limited resources, facilitating the optimization of revenue streams.

Under its unique syngo® software platform, including RIS, PACS, post-processing and distribution, Siemens is focusing on providing solutions that are role-based, context-sensitive and knowledge-driven for radiology and cardiology. The goal is to help clinical personnel work more efficiently through providing a system that seamlessly provides information from HIS, LAB, RIS and PACS. A radiologist has access to important patient information, such as previous reports, lab values and allergies as well as scanned documents in one application window. The physician can confirm whether or not the request is appropriate and make prompt decisions. The radiologist/cardiologist sees this information without having to access various separate systems at multiple locations. This saves much time and effort, improves productivity, and reduces the risk of mistakes. Web-based Portals enable fast communication between departments and partners, task-specific tools and information are available with just one click. Siemens works in close collaboration with leading academic medical centers throughout the world on the development of innovative Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) tools providing automated detection, change detection and characterization. The common thread throughout these developments: to derive knowledge out of the information buried in image-data and make it available throughout the workflow steps - where it is actually needed.
