20
Q
Basic Function of RIS

- It can add images and reports to EHRs where they can be viewed by authorized radiology staff.
- It facilitates patient management as processes like patient registration, scheduling and Patient Tracking is
digitized.
A
Patient Management
21
Q
Basic Function of RIS
- Radiological Information System (RIS) allows staff to make appointments for patients and other people.
- It enables the distribution of patient data and medical images.
- The interaction between physicians is made easier by allowing access to documents within the computer system
A
Scheduling and Sharing
22
Q
With the RIS system, providers can easily track
patients’ radiology history from admission to discharge
and coordinate with past and future appointments.
A
Patient Tracking
23
Q
A RIS can generate statistical reports for a single patient, group of patients or particular procedures.
A
Result Reporting
24
Q
- Radiology providers use RIS to track the patient’s associated data.
- Like EHRs have become a standard to use in the healthcare sector, PACS is widely adopted in the medical enterprise
- RIS provides a detailed financial report of automated claims and electronic payments
A
Image Tracking
25
RIS systems provide detailed financial record-keeping and process electronic payments and automated claims, though these functions are becoming
incorporated into medical organizations' overall EHR systems.
Billing
26
Began as a component of HIS
Radiology Information System (RIS)
27
were developed because of the limited support from HIS in handling special data & information required by the radiology operation.
Radiology Information System (RIS)
28
The exchange of information between a
Radiology Information System (RIS), Hospital
Information System (HIS) and PACS in order to
optimize the utility of PACS for sharing of
information, its retrieval, etc. with the help of a
common platform.
Interfacing
29
2 METHODS OF TRANSMITTING DATA BETWEEN INFORMATION SYSTEMS
1. Database-to-Database Transfer
2. Interface Engine
29
2 METHODS OF TRANSMITTING DATA BETWEEN INFORMATION SYSTEMS
1. Database-to-Database Transfer
2. Interface Engine
30
- Allows 2 or more networked information systems to share a subset of data by storing them in a common local area
- Most often used to share information between the HIS and the RIS
Database-to-Database Transfer
31
Provides a single interface and language to access distributed data in networked heterogeneous information systems
Interface Engine
32
To interface HIS, RIS and PACS, some guidelines are required:
(unchanged, extends to software and hardware to? , data are shared but functions remain?)
1. Each system (HIS, RIS, PACS) remains unchanged in its configuration, data & functions
2. Each system is extended to both hardware & software, to allow each system to communicate with the other systems.
3. Only data are shared; functions remain local
33
FOLLOWING THESE GUIDELINES, SUCCESSFULLY INTERFACING HIS, RIS & PACS REQUIRES THE FOLLOWING STEPS
(Identify, Convert, Define)
I. Identify the subset data that will be shared by other systems. Set up access rights & authorizations.
II. Convert the subset data to HL7 & standard form.
III. Define the protocol of data transfer (e.g. TCP/IP or DICOM)
34
NECESSITY OF INTERFACING (A,D,D)
1. Avoidance of mistyped data entry
2. Development of compatible databases
3. Development of more automated,
more intelligent PACS
35
BENEFITS OF INTERFACING
(P, S, R)
1. Prevents repetitive data entry
2. Sharing of Information
3. Reduction in workload
36
THE RIS-PACS INTERFACE CAN BE IMPLEMENTED BY EITHER:
(T, QP)
1. Trigger Mechanism Between Two Databases
2. Query Protocol
37
Application Level of the interface software waits for the
occurrence of one of these events & triggers the corresponding data to
be sent.
Level 1-4
38
Communication Level transfers the HL7 file to the PACS
server
Level 5-7
39
- IHE patient information can be used to combine different data: ADT in HIS, RIS in radiology, and DICOM image management archive in PACS
- This integration profile can extend the scheduled workflow profile by providing the means to match images acquired for an unidentified patient's registration & order history
Reconciliation Profile
40
The _______________ is a part of the hospital, thus is the ____ a part of the HIS.
The imaging center is a part of the hospital, thus is the RIS a part of the HIS.
41
THE INFORMATION THAT RIS & HIS EXCHANGE WOULD BE:
A. Patient Registry
B. Examination of the Patient
C. Status of Examination and Reports
D. Delivery of findings and distribution to patients
E. Synchronization of data in HIS and RIS
42
In order to achieve an integration of RIS into a unique HIS, it is necessary that
information systems communicate by exchanging messages (information) according to HL7 standard.
43
Enables the exchange of medical
information between different
information systems of healthcare
organization units within one
hospital regardless of the written
program language and the
platform they are realized at.
HL7 - Health Level 7 Standard
44
HL7 standard is primarily focused on?
issues and problems that occur on the seventh layer, the application level
45
Data, time of data exchange
and communication are
shared at this level, where
errors between certain
applications can be seen.
Level 7
46
stores images from various medical devices (modalities): ultrasound (color Doppler, ultrasound, etc.), MRI, CT, mammography, angiographic, digital X-ray machines, PET scanners, nuclear medicine
cameras and other devices
PACS
47
can be integrated into RIS & HIS or other medical information systems; most used in RIS
combines the functions of teleradiology services and systems for archiving, searching and reviewing of
medical images
