BRIT Systems Inc. will introduce a cloud-based peer review system, as well as updates to its image viewer and diagnostic workstation.
BRIT Systems will introduce Peer Review for Radiologists, a cloud-based solution that allows for peer reviews as per the ACR recommended scoring system. Exams are uploaded via DICOM TLS or an upload widget, the company said. Reports can be attached to the studies or sent via HL-7. A system administrator enters the percentage of exams to be reviewed by modality type and the system randomly selects these studies. Radiologists can view the studies via a Web-based view or the application can be integrated into their workstations.
The company will also release the latest version of DoctorWorks medical imaging viewer for the iPad. Version 1.2 provides simultaneous viewing of two studies and a timeline of studies on the information screen and viewing screen. DoctorWorks allows radiologists to share images, reports, and other information by connecting to BRIT’s Roentgen Works PACS server. The app also provides cross-enterprise support via the Roentgen Works’ HIE’s Patient Discovery and its optional Master Patient Index.
The company will also release the latest version of its DICOM diagnostic workstation. BRIT Vision 3.8 provides more integration and tools to make it more efficient, the company said. It features AIRE (Advanced Image Rendering Engine), BRIT’s Web-based high definition volume rendering and 3D imaging post-processing application. The user interface has been updated, and the version includes other integrated tools.
