What is SAMI?

Bone Mineral Density

RIS  Radiology Information System             PACS  Picture Archiving and Communication System

At SAMI, the RIS is used for the management of our daily workload.  The PACS is where all of our images are stored.

Below is the basics of the RIS that you may like to read prior to your SAMI placement.

Familiarising yourself with the look of our RIS, and some of it's basic functions,  will make placement a little easier.  

You will become more confident with the system the more you use it on Clinical Placement.

About RIS

A Radiology Information System (RIS) streamlines workflow within a Radiology Department by managing every step of a patient’s journey through order receipt, scheduling, registration, examination, documentation, dictation, transcription, report distribution, and billing.

Vue RIS, a workflow management solution, is designed to improve productivity, efficiency,

and information accuracy in diagnostic imaging departments, ultimately improving patient care. Below are some of the ways that RIS optimises the radiology workflow:

·         Enables the Radiology Department to schedule and manage exams

·         Facilitates dictation via voice recognition and transcription

·         Provides capabilities for reporting and results distribution

·         Captures signatures electronically

·         Manages inventory levels

·         Transmits exam data electronically

·         Prints patient letters specific to various types of exams

·         Enables mammography reporting

·         Manages film tracking

·         Enables integration into existing financial systems

About PACS

A Picture Archive & Communication System (PACS) is an image management system that allows

radiology departments and imaging clinics to store, retrieve, review, diagnose, and distribute large

volumes of medical images. PACS coupled with Vue RIS provides a fully integrated

PACS/RIS solution.

Vue RIS and Vue PACS together

The Philips unified solution of Vue RIS and Vue PACS provide all the tools you need to obtain optimal speed and efficiency with no compromise in data accuracy or patient care. The full solution automates diagnostic workflow and enables efficient creation, storage and distribution of the patient’s complete radiology record. It provides diagnostic quality review of exam images – complemented by display of patient information – so radiologists can quickly consult a patient's complete clinical status for

fast, accurate exam interpretations.

Patient statuses          

The patient record is always associated with a status. The status lets you (and other personnel at your site) track the patient/exam through the workflow. The following is an example – you can have as many or as few statuses and workflows that make sense for your work area.  As the patient moves through the workflow and changes statuses with each step, all information that anyone enters in RIS is only entered once. All information stays with the order, and accessible to you, throughout the workflow.

Rad/Tech role on RIS

Once a work section has been selected, the user will be presented with the current worklist for that area.  RadTechs will see studies that are in an ‘Arrived’ or ‘In Progress’ status on the workflow.

Documentation

On this screen, RadTechs complete all information in regards the study.  If required, they are able to change the performed procedure that has been done.  The fields are self-explanatory here.  The patients Medical Imaging history is displayed on the bottom of the screen.

Some studies will also allow for information to be entered in regards any CT / MRI Protocols and radiation dose.

Once the RadTech has completed all the information, is happy with the imaging and that it has been sent to PACS successfully, then they can sign off the study.  This is done by selecting ‘Complete’ in the bottom right of the screen.

If for some reason, the exam was not completed.  We have the option to change the status to ‘Incomplete’.  This is done by using the small arrow to side of Complete button.

Once complete the study will then leave the RadTech worklist and appear on the radiologists list to be reported.  Incomplete reports will also disappear from the list.

This is a MRI orientation powerpoint presentation for students.  If you are intending to seek placement in MRI during your clinical placement at FMC, please go through this powerpoint presentation. It is a requirement that you view this powerpoint before placement in FMC MRI. Staff may ask you questions from this powerpoint to ensure that you have viewed and understood the  material.

This page details parking options for students who drive to FMC.

Parking options are VERY limited for students, most on street parking is only 2 hour duration.

Longer term parking is quite a walk away.

Students are encouraged to use public transport wherever possible, or to be dropped off/picked up by a family member/friend wherever possible.

Paid parking is VERY expensive in the multistory car park.

This page provides information for students on drop-off and pick-up
