Siemens showcases RIS/PACS product
Siemens Medical Solutions is exhibiting its Sienet Cosmos at this year’s RSNA meeting as a commercially available integrated radiology IT suite. The company is also showing enhancements to its Novius RIS.
Siemens Medical Solutions is exhibiting its Sienet Cosmos at this year's RSNA meeting as a commercially available integrated radiology IT suite. The company is also showing enhancements to its Novius RIS.
The Sienet Cosmos RIS/PACS, exhibited as a work-in-progress at last year's meeting, features the common syngo user interface and integration with the company's Soarian IT system, allowing real-time access to electronic patient records. The RIS/PACS can be scaled across hospital enterprises or down to individual hospitals and imaging centers. It can serve as a building block for an electronic health record system, according to the company.
Sienet Cosmos allows users to view exams and reports from any location in the network with a standard Internet browser. The fully integrated RIS component guides workflow from exam planning to image distribution and provides documentation for billing out medical services.
Sienet Cosmos includes a fast transmission protocol called iMaxcess, which accelerates image and data transfer. Development of the protocol was driven by the need to handle large image data sets, such as those being generated by increasingly powerful multislice CTs, according to the company.
The Novius RIS boasts several new features:
- paperless workflow, including the ability to scan, manage, and distribute documents
- predefined clinical alerts to notify users when clinical conditions have been met
- clinical workflow improvements, such as flexible work lists and extensive teaching folder functionality
AI Facilitates Nearly 83 Percent Improvement in Turnaround Time for Fracture X-Rays
December 19th 2023In addition to offering a 98.5 percent sensitivity rate in diagnosing fractures on X-ray, an emerging artificial intelligence (AI) software reportedly helped reduce mean turnaround time on X-ray fracture diagnosis from 48 hours to 8.3 hours, according to new research presented at the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) conference.

Can an Emerging PET Radiotracer Enhance Detection of Prostate Cancer Recurrence?
December 14th 2023The use of 68Ga-RM2 PET/MRI demonstrated a 35 percent higher sensitivity rate than MRI alone for the diagnosis of biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer, according to research recently presented at the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) conference.
RSNA 2020: Addressing Healthcare Disparities and Access to Care
December 4th 2020Rich Heller, M.D., with Radiology Partners, and Lucy Spalluto, M.D., with Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, discuss the highlights of their RSNA 2020 session on health disparities, focusing on the underlying factors and challenges radiologists face to providing greater access to care.
Can AI Improve Detection of Extraprostatic Extension on MRI?
December 4th 2023Utilizing a deep learning-based AI algorithm to differentiate between diagnostic and non-diagnostic quality of prostate MRI facilitated a 10 percent higher specificity rate for diagnosing extraprostatic extension on multiparametric MRI, according to research presented at the recent RSNA conference.
Study: Regular Mammography Screening Reduces Breast Cancer Mortality Risk by More than 70 Percent
November 30th 2023Consistent adherence to the five most recent mammography screenings prior to a breast cancer diagnosis reduced breast cancer death risk by 72 percent in comparison to women who did not have the mammography screening, according to new research findings presented at the annual Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) conference.
