An open cloud mobile medical image management platform provider has unveiled a new feature at the annual Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS 2015; Chicago, IL, USA) Conference.
The feature enables a patient or caregiver to upload and share clinical and diagnostic images with physicians, in real time, using a mobile device running the iOs operating system. The feature is intended for sharing visible light images in a US Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act(HIPAA) secure environment with expert consultants.
The DG Suite telemedicine/telehealth platform was developed by DICOM Grid (Phoenix, AZ, USA). The new “medical selfie” feature is intended for use in dermatology and wound care applications.
Morris Panner, CEO of DICOM Grid, said, "The ability to quickly send a picture is especially critical in trauma situations or frankly just to monitor ongoing care. For example, patients or referring physicians can snap a shot of a burn, wound, or other injury and share it with a specialty provider in minutes. A physician can view the picture through our secure portal to determine a treatment plan and advise whether or not the issue requires an in-person visit."
