Connecting all our locations is an advanced communication system known as PACS/RIS (Picture Archiving and Communications System and Radiology Information System).
The introduction of these systems means that no matter what type of image – or where in the country it is captured – it can be instantly accessed and interpreted by one of our expert Radiologists.
The benefits to patient care and improvement in service pathways will be profound. All scans can be reported on quickly which will mean a faster, more convenient service – and one that reduces our carbon footprint.
The technology also allows Nuffield Diagnostics to develop groups of Radiologists with specialist expertise to report on specific conditions. Which means that the best people report quickly on the most appropriate scans.
