Samsung Medical Center (SMC) is the first healthcare provider in the world to receive Stage 7 of the HIMSS DIAM maturity model. (Digital Imaging Adoption Model) assesses healthcare organization’s level of digital imaging maturity and provides guidelines to achieving full enterprise imaging.
INFINITT Healthcare Solutions that are currently being used at SMC and were demonstrated in clinical settings during the onsite stage 7 validation are as follows –
INFINITT Digital Pathology Solution: All pathology images are managed systematically in seamless interface with the patient information from the EMR(APLIS), realizing a fully digital pathology imaging workflow and setting the foundation for wider usage of pathology images for various collaborative care and research purposes.
INFNITT Clinical Information Solution (within the Cardiology Dept): All kinds of non-DICOM patient images and multimedia data (ex. EKG, EEG) are digitally captured using clinical information solution (CIS). The system acquires data from all types of non-DICOM clinical devices and enables users to easily view, exchange, store and manage whichever data they need directly from the EMR.
