Pdf Summary

This document is a summary of a lecture titled "Unleash the Power of Enterprise Imaging for Cardiology" given by Dr. Bradford J. Chu and Stephanie Bazinet, discussing the implementation of enterprise imaging in cardiology to improve efficiency, clinical accuracy, and resource optimization.<br /><br />The lecture mentions the migration from legacy HeartLab to TomTec integration, which includes advanced echo capabilities such as 3D and strain imaging. The decision to implement enterprise imaging was made based on factors such as reporting and efficiency gains with task-based workflows, sharing and collaboration, configurability, and integration into the Cerner EMR system.<br /><br />The lecture highlights the benefits of task-driven workflows, which allow physicians to open pre-filtered exams within a specific worklist, providing a virtual "reading room" environment for easier co-authoring and collaboration across multiple users and sites. The lecture also mentions features like structured reporting, customization of all fields, auto-population of measurements, and offline analysis support.<br /><br />In terms of integration, the lecture emphasizes the integration of enterprise imaging into the Cerner EMR system, enabling seamless reporting and imaging capabilities. The lecture also touches on the importance of maintaining a strong customer/partner relationship, discussing the relationship between AGFA HealthCare and local IT services, regular update and upgrade pathways, and the importance of regular touchpoint meetings.<br /><br />The lecture concludes with a Q&A session and provides contact information for further inquiries.<br /><br />In summary, this lecture discusses the implementation of enterprise imaging in cardiology to improve efficiency, clinical accuracy, and resource optimization. The lecture covers topics such as the decision-making process, reporting and efficiency gains, configurability, enterprise imaging integrations, and the importance of a strong customer/partner relationship.
