MDE - Advice & Consultancy

DICOM / HL7 / Continua Health Alliance standardization

Purchasers of new medical systems must be able to easily and effectively connect these systems with the existing ones. Only then can a new system contribute to an effective workflow and support the work process. However, in practice, effective system integration is often no easy matter. As a result, users often attempt to find a temporary solution, which in turn is usually not the best way to support the work process.

The standardization of data transfer makes it easier to integrate medical systems. However, a great many choices are available within the framework of such standards. As a System Integrator with an extensive track record in the area of medical data exchange, we help companies and institutions to make the right choices. All our consultants have a technical background and are thoroughly familiar with the relevant standards, technology and workflow within the framework of the overall medical work processes.

Example of Healthcare Consultancy project
The purchase of a digital image archive (PACS) is an important decision, and our consultants often help hospitals with this process. To avoid lengthy integration timelines and issues, we make a detailed analysis or scan beforehand. We simulate the workflows via tooling to determine whether the integration of medical data exchange will be able to take place in accordance with plans and expectations. This makes it possible to consider and work out possible solutions before a PACS or modality is actually implemented, thereby optimizing the results of your investment. Healthcare has developed specific in-house tooling to support these types of integration processes.
