Calgary Scientific has announced the release of ResolutionMD 5.0, a diagnostic medical imaging software which allows physicians to securely view patient images on mobile devices and collaborate with other practitioners from any location. The updated version enables physicians to initiate live consultations with experts using the web or mobile devices. Additional features include voice dictation and an improved image exchange capability.
“The future of telemedicine will benefit greatly from technologies that simplify integration and help reduce costs such as ResolutionMD,” said Kyle Hall, Telehealth coordinator at Nebraska Medicine. “Programs that include the use of mobile devices to communicate clinically relevant information among providers and their patients will ultimately improve patient care.”
The platform’s new voice and video collaboration tool lets physicians connect with other providers as well as their patients. The voice dictation feature simplifies report creation, while an enhanced image sharing capability limits the need to physically transfer images. ResolutionMD 5.0 also integrates with electronic medical record systems by Epic, Cerner, and Allscripts, facilitating better insight into patient records.
“The benefits realized by mobile access to information and expertise are ideally suited to the needs of healthcare. Applications such as telestroke and telehealth that integrate mobile image viewing capabilities have been proven to save valuable minutes in accessing images, thereby cutting the time it takes to begin diagnosis,” said Pierre Lemire, president and CTO of Calgary Scientific. “The release of ResolutionMD 5.0, in combination with our global accreditations, offers leading technology to make virtual healthcare an industry standard.”
