How PACS & Teleradiology Improve Diagnostics

PACS — Picture Archiving and Communication Systems — allow medical images such as X-rays, CT scans and ultrasounds to be stored, retrieved and shared digitally.

Combined with teleradiology, this means a scan taken at Minerva Hospital can be reviewed by a senior radiologist within minutes, even outside regular hours. The result: faster diagnosis, second opinions without extra visits, and no lost films.

Benefits for patients

• Reports delivered faster, often within hours
• Images available for any future consultation
• Easy sharing with specialists anywhere in the world
