IBM helps deliver digital medical images solution
QUEBEC CITY, Quebec and MARKHAM, Ontario - 28 Sep 2009: The Agence de la sante et des services sociaux de Montreal has signed a five-year, C$3.6 million deal with Artefact Informatique, the health division of LGS Group Inc., an IBM (NYSE: IBM) company – the first of its kind in Canada – to build a registry for digital medical images based on the Canada-wide Cross-enterprise Document Sharing (XDS) standard.
With the new tool, Quebec physicians will have quick electronic access to the millions of X-rays, MRIs and other medical images stored annually in three secure digital imaging repositories across the province.
“The registry will enable Quebec family doctors to better serve their patients,” said Raymond Carrier, project manager, ministere de la Sante et des Services sociaux du Quebec. “Medical professionals can search for, access and view digital images from their offices, regardless of where or how originals are stored. This is the final step that will lead to a comprehensive medical imaging domain solution as part of the Quebec EHR plan.”
To use the tool, doctors will access IBM’s Cross-enterprise Document Sharing Integration (XDS-I) registry to view a list of all images on file for their patient. By clicking on an item, the IBM solution will provide a link or point to wherever the images are stored, in one of three digital imaging repositories the province maintains.
It’s always great to see what different organizations are achieving with the right range of technologies to solve a business or organizational challenge, an interesting article from IBM, do check it out.
