Medical Imaging

• Medical imaging is the technique and process used to create images of the human body for clinical purposes or medical science

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_imaging

Digital Imaging

• Digital imaging is the creation of digital images

• Term is often assumed to imply or include the processing, compression, storage, printing, and display of such images.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_imaging

Imaging Informatics

• Subdisipline of biomedical informatics

• Concerned with– Acquisition of image in or conversion to digital

form– Analysis, manipulation, and use of those

images once they are in digital form

Shortliffe, E., Biomedical informatics: computer applications in health care and biomedicine

Why Use Imaging Systems

• Detection and diagnosis

• Assessment and planning

• Guidance of procedures

• Communication

• Education and training

• Research

Imaging Systems and HealthCare Processes

• Acquiring/managing images

• Interpreting images

• Communicating the interpretations

PACS Configuration

http://www.keystonemedicalus.com/Multi-Modality-PACS/pacs-configurations

Format Standards

• Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM)– Standard for the electronic exchange of

medical images and the data associated with the images

• Health Level Seven (HL7)– Message standard

Management Issues

• Storage Concerns– Film versus digital– Image modalities differ

• Contrast and spatial resolution requirements• Number of images or the size of the data sets• Raw or processed data • Use of data compression

Management Issues

• Image integration– Viewing stations– On-line image databases– Image-management systems– Networks

Management Issues

• Technological Factors Associated with Digital Displays– Radiologist

• View and interpret

– Referring clinicians• Review and consultation

• Economic Factors Associated with Digital Displays

Major Challenges

• Integration with other information systems– Hospital Information Systems (HIS)– Radiology Information Systems (RIS)

• Standalone• Components of HISs

Integration Example

• PACS integration– Hospital information system– Radiology information systems

Major Challenges

• Reporting methods– Dictation/transcription– Speech recognition– Structured

Future Directions

• Advances in medical imaging technology

• Development of standards

• Expansion of meaningful use

Summary

• Purposes, processes, and management issues

• Challenges with imaging systems

• Future directions
