A dedicated computerized radiology information system (RIS) designed to electronically receive, collect, store, manage, assist in analysis of, display, output, and distribute data, within or between healthcare facilities, to support the administrative and clinical activities associated with the provision and utilization of radiology services and facilities. It may be used for patient scheduling and generation of work lists for specific radiological systems, and in conjunction with a picture archiving and communication system (PACS). The system consists of dedicated combined hardware (e.g., computers, terminals, network components) and software (typically embedded).
A software program dedicated for installation on a central server as part of a picture archiving and communication system (PACS) to allow storage, retrieval, analysis, and management of a broad range of radiological images throughout the healthcare system. As a PACS-dedicated software, it is not primarily intended for diagnosis support, triage, or treatment planning. It does not incorporate adaptive/dynamic machine learning (ML) models.
