Image is everything. New York Hospital's institution-wide digital imaging lowers costs and improves care.
UNLABELLED: The New York Hospital-Cornell Medical Center, Manhattan: a 1,242-licensed bed voluntary non-profit hospital. PROBLEM: Conventional imaging technology created expensive logistical problems between the radiology facility and the Greenberg Pavilion, a new 850,000 square foot, 11-floor inpatient tower, located two city blocks away. SOLUTION: Use a picture archiving communications system (PACS) to transmit, store and archive digital images. RESULTS: Increased staff efficiencies, improved patient care and reduced costs. KEYS TO SUCCESS: "Many years of planning and a full commitment from the staff."

Cardiomedia: a multimedia portable medical record on optical memory card.
The main objective of the CARDIOMEDIA project is to produce and evaluate a coronarian multimedia data record stored on an optical card. The experimentation concerns patients treated by angioplasty at university hospital of Rennes. Often patients treated in the Regional University Hospital are followed up by another Health structure closer to their home. The patient leaves hospital with his card, which is directly available elsewhere for emergency or for consultation. This will optimize the number of examinations and offer a better patient follow-up. The CARDIOMEDIA card is a specialized record which includes various data type: text, image, image sequence of coronarography and ECG signal. For this purpose optical card with its large memory size is very convenient. For medical imaging, we use in this project the DICOM format for image exchange and management, it is combined with a CARDIOMEDIA specific compressing software. For multimedia record, the HTML format and web intranet method are chosen, this allows intuitive interface which can combine various data type and helpers like DICOM image viewer.

A novel method for storage of medical records and documents.
Many medical groups have a problem storaging and managing inactive medical records. The storage process involves selecting the records from inactive status, moving the records to storage and retrieving them if the patient is re-established. Many groups simply run out of storage space and are in need of an efficient and cost-effective way to manage this problem. This case study will show that an optical storage system provides a cost-effective method of archiving medical documents that can be easily indexed and retrieved.

On stepwise integrating an electronic patient record based on digital-optical archiving and multi-purpose health professional workstations: experiences at the Heidelberg University Hospital.
At the Heidelberg University Hospital the conventional paper-based medical record is currently being replaced by a "unique" electronic patient record (EPR). This paper describes the stepwise integration of an EPR based on digital-optical archiving and multi-purpose health professional workstations. If focuses on the potentials of digital optical archiving as an integral part of hospital information systems. So far, the EPR has been introduced in the central archive of the "head clinic", the Neurosurgical Clinic and the inpatient archive, the endoscopy and sonography section of the Department of Internal Medicine.

More space, more speed. Scanning technology and COLD help improve document imaging.
UNLABELLED: Children's Hospital Medical Center, Akron, Ohio PROBLEM: The 100-year-old-plus medical center needed a reliable, economical and easy-to-use document storage method that provided a long and secure archival life. SOLUTION: Children's adopted Hewlett-Packard magneto-optical jukeboxes and Optika software. RESULTS: Since the jukeboxes became operational in January 1998, Children's has maintained "24 x 7 availability" of its stored documents for up to 150 concurrent users without any downtime. KEYS TO SUCCESS: "We started implementation in the accounting department with patient billing, hospital general ledger, accounts payable and employee payroll, and the document imaging system has quickly gained acceptance in other departments as well."
