Philips Healthcare and Nuance Communications are collaborating to help monitor radiation dose.
The partnership will allow users of Nuance's PowerScribe 360 radiology reporting system to import patient dosimetry data from Philips' DoseWise Portal radiation dose management software.
DoseWise Portal enables users to proactively record, analyze, and monitor imaging radiation dose across multiple diagnostic settings, helping facilities comply with accreditation requirements.
With the combined product, health systems can more easily incorporate patient radiation dose data from CT, PET, and x-ray systems into radiology reports that can be viewed through RIS and other electronic health record systems, Philips said.
