PACS vendor ScImage of Los Altos, CA, has signed a product integration agreement with diagnostic cardiology company Mortara Instrument of Milwaukee.
Under the terms of the deal, ScImage will integrate its PicomEnterprise PACS software with Mortara's ECG modalities, using the DICOM ECG standard. The pact will allow Mortara's ELI series electrocardiographs to communicate directly with the ScImage software, communicating bidirectionally and receiving a DICOM Modality Worklist (MWL) with patient demographics and order information from the ScImage PicomEnterprise PACS.
ECGs will then be transmitted to the PicomEnterprise PACS for workflow management, reporting, and storage of the DICOM ECG object with results reporting to the hospital information system. The ECG test will then be accessible by clinicians and physicians to view the ECG in context with other test results and images stored within the PicomEnterprise archive.
