U.K. and Australia-based radiology information system (RIS) provider Soliton IT has installed its Radiology+ RIS software at South Tyneside District Hospital in the U.K.
As the main site for the South Tyneside National Health Service (NHS) Trust, the hospital provides care to thousands of patients in the community. Until recently, however, the hospital's radiology department was using a custom radiology module to manage workflow instead of a dedicated RIS.
Soliton IT has now completed integration of its Radiology+ RIS with the hospital's PACS from GE Healthcare -- allowing clinicians to manage clinical images, results, statistical analyses, and patient planning in a single interface. Radiology+ RIS also includes features such as instant messaging and embedding signatures into reports.
