New CVIS Solution Launched at the American College of Cardiology Conference
By MedImaging International staff writers Posted on 22 Mar 2015 |
A new Cardiovascular Image and Information Management System (CVIS) has been demonstrated at the American College of Cardiology Annual Scientific Session (ACC; San Diego, USA), mid-March 2015.
CVIS is a central repository of data in a single integrated workspace that displays information about diagnosis, treatment, and therapy of patients across the whole cardiovascular service line.
The system is web-enabled and features tools for patient diagnosis and care planning, a suite of interoperable clinical modules, integrated echocardiography reporting, and tools for analyzing data for use by physicians, administrators, and researchers. The data analysis tools can be used to improve operational efficiency, increase productivity, as well as for insights into population health.
Jeroen Tas, CEO, Healthcare Informatics Solutions and Services at Philips, said, "The new era of value-based care and population health management is requiring cardiologists to collaborate and share information more readily with other care team members across various care settings. IntelliSpace Cardiovascular marks the next generation of cardiology imaging and innovation, serving as a layer of interoperability that allows all care team members to access data and sophisticated clinical applications within one workspace."
