PACS firm Image Information Systems has introduced iQ-Web Uploader 1.1, a new vendor-neutral web portal aimed at facilitating image sharing for physicians and patients.
With iQ-Web Uploader, healthcare professionals and patients can use any internet-connected device to transfer medical images or relevant photos and documents to any PACS, according to the vendor. In addition, iQ-Web Uploader can also be used for teleradiology, enabling studies to be uploaded to the portal for remote reading, Image Information Systems said.
After data is uploaded, a secure Web Access to DICOM (WADO) link is sent via the software's built-in email client to both the uploader and the chosen recipient of the data, according to the firm. They can then access the uploaded imaging data on the recipient's PACS archive or share the information with others, the company said.
Image Information Systems said that iQ-Web Uploader is compliant with both the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) in the U.S. and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in Europe.
