What Is PACS

P.A.C.S. (Picture Archive and Communication System)

A picture archiving and communication system (PACS) is the system integration of many components, including radiologic image acquisition devices, computers, communication networks, image display workstations, data base management systems, and storage medium for archival of data for current and historical information..

Does your radiology department have...:

The need to do more with the same human resources?
The need to use real estate more efficiently?
The need to access film in more than one place?
The need to integrate multiple radiology departments?
The need to perform utilization review analysis?
Referring physicians which can be better served?
Concerns about misplaced films?

Then PACS is for You !!

What does a PACS do?

Improves Patient Care
Provide an electronic infrastructure for Radiology
Acquire Images
Facilitate enhancement interpretation for images
- Display Images
- Manipulate/Enhance Images
Workflow
- Provide distributed diagnostic imaging, at the right time and the right place
Improves efficiency
Promotes data integrity
Store information for future reference
- Multiple Distributed Copies
- Move/Copy/Store Images

Potential Benefits

Tangible - Quantitative	Intangible - Qualitative	Strategic - Organizational
Lower Operating Costs Film costs substantially reduced Chemical/processing costs reduced File/image handling costs (labor) reduced Folder/film label costs Archive file space costs (Real Estate) reduced Examination repeat rate decreased Single electronic image and database	Process/Productivity Improvements Shorter patient stays Less stress to patients and clinicians Quick/simple transfer of images and findings Faster radiological consultations Simultaneous viewing of images Elimination of misplaced images Image access across network	Enterprise-wide Improvements Clinicians spend more time treating patients Improved physician/patient satisfaction Image resource optimization across Hospital Enterprise Remote consultation simplified Images move instead of radiologists Integration of all imaging/information systems

Use your information technology to deliver clinical information and tools for medical images.

Healthlines Evolutionary PACS provides a simple and logical migration to the digital world of Medical Imaging , from component requirements that get you started in the right direction to "fully fledged" implementation as the need arises.
