Method and system for sharing data between radiology systems

摘要

The present invention relates to a method and a system for sharing and exchanging event data between at least two radiology information systems (2). An event in any of the radiology information systems triggers a send and receive server to convert the event data from the radiology information system that has sent out the trigger signal. The send and receive server (8) then packages the converted data and sends the converted and packed data from the send and receive server to a central server. The central server tags the received data and stores the received data at a central storage unit (14) connected to the central server. Finally, the central server sends the stored data back to any of the radiology information systems via the send and receive server at the request by any of the radiology information systems and if the stored data comprises images exchange the exciting meta-data with meta-data generated by the send and receive server (8) of the receiving radiology information system (2).
