The integration of medical images and viewing tools from the DICOM Grid cloud into our interactive diagnostic reporting platform will allow for enhanced communication among physicians, referring providers, and patients alike." "Providers today are seeking innovative technology solutions to share medical history and communicate with patients. We are now far past the "appointment reminder" solutions. Physicians want to safely share diagnostic imaging like CTs and MRIs and reporting," says Morris Panner, CEO of DICOM Grid.  Evidentia Reports provide a solution for sharing complex radiology reports with patients. In partnership with DICOM Grid, the platform will be able to incorporate diagnostic imaging allowing patients to have enhanced control over their own health." Diagnostic imaging and the associated reports are even more important for patients managing complex conditions.
