Healthcare IT vendor Medstreaming released structured reporting upgrades for its Clinical Data Management platform (CDM) at RSNA 2014.
The company is showcasing its latest structured reporting platform technology, Graphic Fusion Workflow (GFW), along with its latest upgrade, Graphic Fusion Waveform Icons. GFW digitally converges the traditional table-based exam worksheets and the anatomical context and efficiency provided by sketches, the firm said. Through DICOM-structured reporting, measurements are autopopulated to appropriate locations within the anatomical digital sketch.
GFW has bidirectional communication between the table and the sketch, with textual input into the table, prompting graphical input into the sketch and vice versa.
The Graphic Fusion Waveform Icons upgrade provides a way to visually communicate blood flow hemodynamics detected within a particular vessel segment and, when viewed collectively, the patterns of blood flow within the entire vessel or system.
The company also announced that the Massachusetts General Hospital Department of Radiology will be adopting the Medstreaming CDM for 3D ultrasound workflow and will work with Medstreaming on expanding the structured reporting concept into 3D ultrasound.
