Overview of Cardiology and Radiology Systems

A cardiology information system (CIS) stores and retrieves cardiology images to provide remote access and easy data retrieval. It offers benefits like flexibility and data security. A radiology information system (RIS) manages medical images and data, tracking orders and billing. It integrates with PACS and VNA for archiving and works with hospital systems for records. Key functions are patient management, scheduling, tracking, reporting, and billing.

CARDIOLOGY INFORMATION SYSTEM
Cardiology Information System (CIS) is mainly focused on the
storage and retrieval of cardiology-centric images.
In the 1970s CIS uses mainframe environments. The trend moved to
modular systems in the 1980s. With the introduction of the internet, CIS
nowadays have unique features that enable remote access and easy retrieval.
BENEFITS AND FUNCTIONALITIES
Benefits Ease of access while maintaining data security

Flexibility in the workflow

Enhanced comparability

Functionalities Editing, viewing, and storing multi-modal cardiology data


Remote access
Visualization and reporting capabilities
EHR integration
RADIOLOGY INFORMATION SYSTEM
A Radiology Information System (RIS) refers to a network system used for
managing imagery and associated data in the radiology department. It tracks the orders
and billing information of the requesting department.
It uses picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) for the storage
and management of medical images and vendor neutral archival (VNA) to manage
image archives and for record-keeping and billing within a hospital information system
(Rouse, 2017).

KEY POINTS TO REMEMBER
 Cardiology Information System (CIS) is mainly focused on the storage and
retrieval of cardiology-centric images.
 The benefits and features of CIS include ease of access while maintaining
data security, flexibility in the workflow, and enhanced comparability
 The functionalities of CIS are (a) editing, viewing, and storing multi-modal
cardiology data; remote access; visualization and reporting capabilities; and
EHR Integration.
 A radiology information system (RIS) is a network software system designed
to manage medical imagery and associated data. An RIS is especially useful
for tracking radiology imaging orders and billing information, and is often
used in conjunction with picture archiving and communication systems
(PACS) and vendor neutral archivals (VNA) to manage image archives and
for record-keeping and billing within a hospital information system (HIS).
 The functions of a RIS are patient management, scheduling, patient tracking,
results reporting, image tracking and billing.
