About Envision Radiology

The organization provides a wide range of services, including multi-modality imaging, remote reading, and specialty support.
The Problem
With most mammogram appointments scheduled 12 months prior to the exam, the SecureView system immediately identified relevant prior studies and delivered them to workstations prior to the return visit. The team needed to update and improve the process to account for new challenges around growth in systems and data. With limited storage capacity at the reading station, the prior studies would que up, then fall off as new studies entered the workstation. As the company expanded in sites and systems, the team needed a workflow engine to ensure that all sources, both old and new to the network, were dynamically searched for all relevant studies regardless of the patient naming conventions, schemes, metadata, and demographic data irregularities.
The Solution
With the Silverback® Workflow Engine, the team deployed an intelligent prefetch utilizing HL7 Schedule messages as the trigger to move studies to the right destination at the right time.
Additionally, Envision quickly leveraged Silverback® to customize configuration and monitoring for a comprehensive view of all studies available in the entire Envision network for prefetch. The team quickly leveraged the UI to:
- Configure Silverback® to listen for SIU messages at the time of scheduling.
- Create a staging table to reference patients with multiple MRNs, Patient ID errors etc.
- Set time and profile logic to deliver studies 48 hours prior to exam.
- Connect and configure all source and target systems through an intuitive, central UI.
- Set reporting and alerts to ensure all prefetch studies arrive in full to destination and support internal QC measures.
Looking Ahead
As Envision continues to expand, the Silverback® platform provides a dynamic solution to support its innovative strategy. With customized image distribution, archiving, QC testing, high availability, and the most powerful migration engine in the industry, Envision has the tools to solve any problem today and tomorrow.
