INTERACTIVE PROTOCOLING BETWEEN A RADIOLOGY INFORMATION SYSTEM AND A DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM/MODALITY

摘要

Certain embodiments of the present invention provide methods and systems for interactive protocoling between a healthcare information system and a diagnostic imaging system/modality. Certain embodiments provide a method for interactive protocoling between healthcare information and diagnostic imaging systems including viewing available scanning protocols for a diagnostic imaging system and associating a patient scanning order with one or more of the available scanning protocols for the diagnostic imaging system. Certain embodiments provide an interface enabling interactive protocoling between healthcare information and diagnostic imaging systems. The interface includes a protocol list including available scanning protocols for a diagnostic imaging system and a dialog for accepting input from a user to specify one or more of the available scanning protocols from the protocol list. The dialog is configured to associate an order for scanning a patient using the diagnostic imaging system with the one or more specified scanning protocols.
