How does Teleradiology help the Healthcare providers like Hospitals, Nursing Homes and Remote Diagnostic Centres?

It is all about interpreting medical images and providing reports, over a digital network. And there are often questions which have simple answers. To understand and know more, take a look at a few Teleradiology reporting related FAQs below.

Q: What is Teleradiology?

A: Teleradiology is the practice of providing remote radiology services, such as interpreting medical images and providing reports, over a digital network. Online teleradiology reporting allows radiologists to provide remote radiology services to healthcare providers and patients. These services include:

• Interpretation of medical images such as X-rays, CT scans, MRIs, and ultrasounds

• Creation of detailed reports

• Consultation with referring physicians

• Second opinions

Q: What are the benefits of using a Teleradiology software for your Hospital/Nursing Home?

A: Tele radiology softwares allow Hospitals, Nursing Homes and Diagnostic Centers to share medical images and data with radiologists remotely. This technology has revolutionized the way healthcare is delivered, allowing providers to access medical images and data from any location. Tele radiology has a number of benefits for remote healthcare service providers. Major advantages include:

  • Improved Access to Care: Tele radiology allows healthcare providers to access medical images and reports from remote locations, which can improve access to care for patients in rural or underserved areas, eliminating the need for them to travel to a General or Multi-Specialty Hospital in a big town or a city
  • Increased Efficiency: Tele radiology can reduce the time it takes to diagnose and treat patients, as well as reduce the need for follow-up visits.

Q: Does speed matter in Tele radiology reporting?

A: Speed is an important balancing factor in Tele radiology reporting because it can affect the accuracy and timeliness of the report. Especially when radiologists review a study quickly for emergency cases, they could miss important details or make an incorrect diagnosis. Conversely, if the report is not delivered quickly enough, it may delay the patient's treatment or cause unnecessary delays in care. The more intelligent online platforms therefore rely on intelligent automation to balance the above situations in orde to deliver patient satisfaction, as patients expect their reports to be delivered quickly and accurately.

Q: How does Softmed Technology’s Teleradiology reporting work for you?

A: We use a combination of specialized software and hardware to read DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) images. The software is used to convert the DICOM images into a format that can be read by the hardware. The hardware then processes the images and displays them on a monitor. The images are then interpreted by a radiologist, who may make a diagnosis or recommend further testing. The images can also be stored in a secure database for future reference

Q: Which Tele radiology reporing features do you provide?

A: Our TELERAD SUITE reporting features benefit you in many ways:

  • Automated report generation/delivery - Automated report delivery allows radiologists to quickly and efficiently deliver reports to referring physicians
  • AI driven Analytics - We are adapting AI for workflow automation in stages to further improve the accuracy and speed of diagnoses. AI is being adapted to identify patterns in medical data, such as patient history or lab results, to help physicians make more informed decisions. In future, we look forward to assistive reading of medical images of patients (analyze medical images and detect abnormalities, such as tumors or fractures). We shall also use AI to automate administrative tasks, such as scheduling appointments or managing patient records.
  • Structured reporting - Allows radiologists to quickly and accurately capture relevant clinical information in a standardized format
  • Image-driven reporting - Allows radiologists to quickly and accurately interpret images and provide a comprehensive report
  • Data Security -  1. Encryption: All data is encrypted to ensure that it is secure and cannot be accessed by unauthorized individuals. 2. Authentication: All users are authenticated before they can access the system. 3. Access Control: Access to the system is restricted to authorized personnel only
  • Multi-site collaboration - Our multi-site collaboration feature allows multiple ‘sites’ to collaborate on a single case, allowing for faster diagnosis and treatment. This allows medical professionals to share images and data with each other in real-time, allowing for faster diagnoses and treatment. It also allows for remote consultations, allowing medical professionals to consult with each other without having to be in face-to-face touch with each other, ‘on premise’!
