Carestream Health, Inc. Supports Vendor-Neutral Storage of Images, Data From Multiple Departments—On-Site or in the Cloud

ORLANDO, May 23 — Patient data and images have always lived in separate worlds—but those days are over. Carestream’s Vue Archive and Vue Cloud Archive equip healthcare providers to collect images and data from a variety of information systems, deliver easy integration with any vendor’s EMR, and offer advanced encryption and security measures including 24/7/365 monitoring.

“The heart of meaningful use regulations is the desire to present a holistic view of the patient,” said Diana L. Nole, Carestream’s President of Digital Medical Solutions. “Our vendor-independent archiving solution allows healthcare organizations to create a more comprehensive patient record by providing easy access to data and imaging studies. Consolidating storage solutions can also reduce expenses, eliminate inefficient departmental silos of information and streamline management of data/image exchange.”

Carestream’s vendor-neutral archive efficiently communicates with multiple vendors’ RIS/PACS, cardiology, pathology and other information systems. It supports interoperability and integration standards and protocols such as HL7, DICOM, non-DICOM, IHE (including XDS, XDS-i) and WADO. The archive is proven to support a wide range of architectures and infrastructures, from departmental and multi-site systems to regional and national medical archives.

Carestream’s archive easily integrates data and/or images into any vendor’s EMR to facilitate the sharing of information with clinicians, referring physicians and specialists that may be involved in a patient’s diagnosis and treatment. The CARESTREAM Vue Motion zero-footprint viewer equips physicians with easy and intuitive access to the archive using only a web browser or EMR web portal.

Carestream’s vendor-independent archive also delivers exceptional security features including: data integrity procedures to prevent loss or corruption of data; physical security of cloud-based data centers; advanced multi-tier encryption; multi-level access authorizations; auditing and tracking of data access; and proactive monitoring of security threats.
