Cyber Security in Healthcare

January 30, 2023
Image
The health sector has unique challenges associated with the security and storage of data and patient information. Health institutions are also at the forefront of health technology innovation because they are very reliant on technology, but are adaptable when they need to be, as COVID-19 has shown.

Achieving Exponential Gains in Imaging Speed

Healthcare

November 27, 2024

Dicom Systems and Pure Storage conducted testing to evaluate if high-performance data storage affects medical image transmission latency and transfer speed. The testing focused on the routing functionality of the Dicom Systems Unifier enterprise imaging platform.

We tested various workflow functions including but not limited to Unifier DICOM routing and tag morphing, supported by PureStorage® hardware.Ourgoalwasto confirm if transmission time and transfer speeds correlated with storage performance. Measurements included large, regular, and small DICOM studies. We tested a maximum throughput of 1,280 megabytes (MB) and assessed I/O performance and latency.

Maximizing the Dicom Standard for Digital Pathology Routing, Ingesting, and Storing

Healthcare

November 27, 2024

Adopting the Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) standard in pathology has typically been driven by the crucial need for interoperability among various slide scanners and IT systems. The DICOM standard offers superior performance in displaying, viewing, and storing images, achieved by dividing large images into smaller tiles stored in two- dimensional arrays. This method allows for faster image retrieval by enabling quick access to specific sub-regions without loading extensive data. Digital Whole Slide Images (WSI) management has many pathology organizations seeking scalable, simple, and cost-optimized solutions experienced in DICOM and non-DICOM.

Processing digitized pathology slides into DICOM format and routing the images across the organization significantly affects the network and the DICOM application handling that traffic. Bottlenecks may arise from processing, routing, transformation, and impact of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms used in imaging workflows. Multiple factors contribute to these challenges, such as complex imaging workflows, disparate systems operating in varied environments, outdated enterprise imaging platforms, or inadequate data storage for high-volume imaging.
