RSNA 2012 - Context-Aware Workflow Management Is A Game-Changer

TORONTO, Nov. 20, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- RSNA's upcoming 2012 Scientific Assembly and Annual Meeting, the world's premier event for medical imaging, will witness the introduction of a new software-enabled organizational innovation for diagnostic imaging: "context-aware workflow management".

In March 2012, the European Congress of Radiology recognized context-aware workflow management as an award-winning methodology for radiology quality assurance programs, and in May, it was selected for the Innovation Showcase at the e-Health 2012 conference in Vancouver, BC, as a breakthrough in shared workflow scenarios and applications.

Context-aware workflow management marks a shift in the direction of innovation for diagnostic imaging service providers – from data to workflow. This is in response to unmet process-driven organizational needs and improvement objectives. Many digital imaging organizations are under pressure to now guarantee service levels to patients, demonstrate an effective quality assurance program, create better patient-centric models of care, or address Meaningful Use requirements. Quite often, they have to do so across disparate, non-integrated PACS/RIS infrastructures.

Addressing these process-related challenges is expressly what context-aware workflow management is designed to do. Notably, because its approach is vendor-neutral and functionally complementary, it leverages and extracts incremental value from existing investments in PACS/RIS infrastructures.

The first context-aware workflow management software platform, Real Time Medical's DiaShare ™, will be demonstrated live at RSNA 2012.  

DiaShare ™ has enabled the largest teleradiology network in Canada for the past four years.  "DiaShare is amazingly reliable and excellent at seamlessly integrating with any number of PACS/RIS systems, while delivering a single sign-on and easy to negotiate interface for the reporting radiologist," said radiologist Dr. John Bennett. Another DiaShare ™ customer in British Columbia, Dr. Dennis Janzen, confirmed that DiaShare ™ delivered "major gains for our group with regards to reporting efficiency, radiologist collaboration and work-sharing, timeliness of report generation, and overall business management issues."
