June 4th @ 1PM ET -- Standalone Universal Viewing Platform: A practical and affordable approach to image enabling the EMR
May 15, 2013

ViTAL
Accessing a patient’s complete longitudinal medical record is frequently a cumbersome process that frustrates physicians and diminishes quality of care. The inclusion of the patient’s medical images in that record is complicated by an absence of interfaces to the various data repositories and the lack of a single multi-modality viewing application. The recent explosion of Electronic Medical Record system deployments suggests that most healthcare organizations are preparing themselves to meet Meaningful Use mandates, but a sound strategy for image-enabling the EMR remains elusive. Join us to review the many issues associated with image-enabling the EMR and see how an advanced image viewing technology can meet the numerous technical challenges as well as satisfy the physician’s performance expectations.
