RIS Modules

Patient management

A RIS can track a patient's entire workflow within the radiology department; radiology providers can add images and reports to EHRs, where they can be retrieved and viewed by authorized radiology staff.

Scheduling

The RIS allows staff to make appointments for both inpatients and outpatients.

Patient tracking

Using a RIS system, providers can track a patient's entire radiology history from admission to discharge and coordinate the history with past, present and future appointments.

Results reporting

A RIS can generate statistical reports for a single patient, group of patients or particular procedures.

Image tracking

Traditionally, radiology providers use RIS to track individual films and their associated data. But as EHRs have become standard across the healthcare industry and digitized images and PACS have been widely adopted, radiology departments and their RIS-PACS systems have been more drawn into the clinical workflow of the entire medical enterprise.
