Medical image e-sharing developer LifeImage of Newton, MA, has launched an Internet-based Trauma Image Management and Exchange (TIME).
TIME is a clinical tool that helps trauma units collect diagnostic imaging information early, and share it with surgical teams and other care providers. By electronically receiving imaging data before a transfer is even initiated, trauma centers have more time to prepare and avoid repeat exams when transferred patients arrive, LifeImage said.
First-response sites that need diagnostic-quality images electronically with a trauma center using TIME do not need to purchase or deploy LifeImage software, or have a virtual private network (VPN) connection, according to LifeImage. With an Internet connection, imaging information can be shared with the receiving site, and clinicians and administrators can preview and examine images.
