METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR INTEGRATING MEDICAL IMAGING SYSTEMS AND E-CLINICAL SYSTEMS

摘要

The present invention provides an imaging service method and system by which medical images stored in the DICOM standard in a central medical imaging repository may be seamlessly and securely accessed, and operated on, by electronic data capture (EDC) or eClinical data systems. The interoperability between web-based Medical Imaging Repositories and eClinical systems provided by the present invention may increase data quality and visibility to clinical workflow involving medical imaging, decrease delays in accessing images and their clinical measurements, and improve the functionality of DICOM-based MIR systems by providing measurement-based versions.

主权项

1. A computer-implemented method for integrating a first clinical system and a second clinical system, the method comprising:
receiving, with a processor, image data relating to an image from the first clinical system; receiving workflow data from the second clinical system; capturing a first association between the workflow data and the image data; and providing, utilizing the first association, access to the first clinical system from the second clinical system.
