PACS
The PACS (Picture Archival Communication System) used by Arcadia Radiology Medical Group is a filmless, computerized, medical imaging system that allows our radiologists to immediately view exam images and begin preparing a report for the referring provider. PACS technology provides the full series of exam images, a voice clip and a montage of selected images immediately available to physicians through the Web Ambassador program.
The voice clip, an initial interpretation recorded by the radiologist, saves time for the practitioner and expedites patient care by allowing a physician to listen to the radiology report at the same time he or she looks at the exam images. The montage of images selected by the radiologist, is a group of images that summarize the findings of the exam, often with arrows and annotations, and is the first image presented to the referring physician when the exam is accessed from the Web Ambassador.
