Today, Vaultara, creators of a self-hosted, image sharing platform, announced a new version of its software to be unveiled at Radiological Society of North America’s Annual Meeting in Chicago at the end of the month.
Vaultara’s Flight solution allows imaging facilities to share studies and other medical data with other providers, regardless of what PACS or EMR they’re using. This vendor-neutral product is also unique in that it does not rely on the cloud to send data. The software is self-hosted, giving the facility’s IT staff complete control of security and access through their existing security systems and firewalls.
Version 2.0.1 introduces the ability to import patient information from CDs, DVDs, or Blu-ray discs, the option to manipulate patient demographic information associated with any received medical data, and additional administrative capabilities. “Whilst we’ve always permitted an outside facility to send medical data into a customer facility, we realized we had not yet provided a workflow to address the situation when a patient walks in with their data on a disc. This new version permits staff to import that data from any optical media directly to their workstation, through the user-friendly interface we’ve designed,” explained Dave Monk, CTO of Vaultara.
"We are very excited and honored to partner with Merry X-Ray/SourceOne Healthcare as one of our preferred distributors,” said Vaultara managing partner, John Klinck. “We are confident that their customers will respond favorably to the introduction of our medical image sharing solution.”
