PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center Enhances OB Reporting Workflow with Digisonics Functionality

HOUSTON - March 6, 2017 - PRLog -- PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center in Vancouver, Wash., has significantly expanded its Digisonics ultrasound reporting solutions in both the Radiology and Maternal Fetal Medicine departments.

Digisonics will provide users with web-based remote reading capabilities for reporting of their OB ultrasound studies. PeaceHealth will also utilize an API enabling users to launch the Digisonics software directly from the PACS workstation for simultaneous image review and structured reporting.

HL7 interfaces will create a bi-directional, seamless workflow between Digisonics and the facility's Epic EMR. Clinicians will have access to PDFs of the multimedia reports, with growth charts, tables and diagrams. The facility will further streamline their reporting workflow by autopopulating essential patient information, including demographics and measurements, from GE ultrasound systems directly into the clinical reports, eliminating time spent on manual data entry.

As a result, PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center benefits from a fully integrated ultrasound reporting workflow, with greater accuracy, satisfaction and improved overall turnaround times.
