InMed Diagnostic Services goes WarpSpeed

Multi-state diagnostic imaging center provider InMed Diagnostic Services has selected WarpSpeed PACS (picture archive and communication system)/RIS (radiology information system) from Image Technology Laboratories Inc (IMTL) for three of its sites, including its largest in Columbia, S.C. The other two will be installed in multi-modality imaging centers in Massachusetts which specialize in women's health.
   
Some of the features of PACS/RIS are paperless workflow, instant access to clinical data, enhanced diagnostic tools, a single database system, and report transcription/distribution with secure email reports, IMTL said.
