Traditional Radiology
In the early days of Radiology,
everything happened under
one roof. The patient, the
General Practitioner, and the
Radiologist were in the same
building.

Teleradiology
In the late 1990’s, some
Radiologists began
experimenting with accessing
images remotely.
The original use case was
emergency interpretations in
the middle of the night from
the radiologist’s home.

Teleradiology
In the early 2000’s, the
practice of remote
interpretation blossomed into
the “teleradiology” industry.
Companies were founded on
this concept.
One “teleradiology”
organization can serve many
(100+) hospitals.
How does it work?
The process is relatively simple.
First, the hospital sends the images using “DICOM”,
which is the language that Radiology scanners use.
Images over DICOM
How does it work?
The Radiologist receives the images, reviews them,
and then creates a report.
The report is sent back to the hospital using either
fax, DICOM, or HL7 (technology to directly connect
with the EHR).

Reports over Fax, DICOM, or HL7
How does it work?
As groups work more closely together, the
integration can become more sophisticated.
For example, the groups can send additional details
over fax, HL7, or phone calls.

How does it work?
A complete integration can become complex.
Using a system like Clariso can simplify the integration
and reduce costs for both sides.
Clariso manages all connectivity including DICOM, HL7,
and faxes. It also provides secure email and SMS.
