Abstract

We have developed a radiology information system using intranet techniques, including hypertext markup language, JavaScript, and Web server. JavaScript made it possible to develop an easy-to-use application, as well as to reduce network traffic and load on the server. The system we have developed is inexpensive and flexible, and its development and maintenance are much easier than with the previous system.

Use of data in a radiology information system for labeling computed radiographs: an interface to connect the two systems.

Computers have greatly facilitated the processing and storage of radiologic information. Manufacturers of radiology information systems (RISs) are gradually incorporating options for interfacing their products with other computers (e.g., hospital information systems). However, a growing need exists to also interface RISs with digital radiologic equipment so that images (e.g., computed radiographs of the chest and skeleton) are automatically labeled with identification data. Such connectivity would eliminate redundant work by technologists, decrease errors in the labeling of images, and increase the consistency of patients' data within a radiology department. Unfortunately, the rapid advances in digital technology, combined with the lack of a well-defined standard for the transfer of demographic information between dissimilar systems, have delayed development of these interfaces. We have developed a widely applicable method to automatically transfer patients' demographic data from an RIS to a commercially available computed radiography system. A personal computer is configured with inexpensive programmable telecommunications software to create an interactive gateway, which eliminates the need for redundant data entry (compared with entering data once on the RIS and again on the stand-alone computed radiography system), and thus also decreases errors in the labeling of images.

Integrating a personal-computer local-area network with a radiology information system: value as a tool for clinical research.

We investigated a method for increasing the utility of a radiology information system by connecting it to a personal-computer network and transferring radiologic data to a more user-friendly, familiar computing environment. We have developed a personal-computer local-area network that is linked to our radiology information system. Our software periodically transfers data from the radiology information system to a file server on our network that supports cross-platform access for Macintosh and IBM PC--compatible computers. Data are stored in formats compatible with inexpensive personal-computer software. These capabilities facilitate any research that requires a tailored, retrospective analysis of radiologic data. The need for ancillary personnel to perform paper-based searches or redundant data entry is decreased. Radiologists and administrators also have user-friendly access to information that might facilitate other projects dealing with education or analysis of clinical efficacy. The ever-growing power of personal computers, combined with inexpensive yet sophisticated software for these machines, frequently provides a more useful method for retrospective analysis of radiologic data than does a proprietary radiology information system running on a minicomputer.
