Scottsdale, AZ — PHS Technologies Group LLC, a division of PACSHealth, LLC and developer of innovative software that records and analyzes ionizing radiation data from medical imaging procedures, announced today that national radiology solutions & services provider Nuvodia will begin offering PHS’s DoseMonitor® 2.0 to monitor patient radiation exposure.

“We are pleased that Nuvodia will be offering DoseMonitor® to their clients to monitor, report, and manage radiation dose in their clinical environments. This shows a true commitment to their clients and being on the forefront of the medical imaging industry,” said Mike Battin, COO of PACSHealth, LLC.

"The ability to effectively monitor radiation dose indices during certain medical imaging procedures has become increasingly important.” DoseMonitor is a single server, browser based software application that automates dose data collection and reporting. It fully integrates into an RIS, EMR, and the American College of Radiology’s Dose Index Registry, helping to eliminate time consuming manual steps and reducing input errors. Facilities can accurately depict historical exposure and compare, aggregate, and interpret data from ionizing radiation sources for an individual patient, exam, or between diagnostic modalities in multiple facilities.

Chris Patrick, Director of Nuvodia’s Radiology Informatics Business Unit states, “we are very excited to be partnering with PHS Technologies Group, a leader in the dose monitoring field, to extend Nuvodia’s diagnostic imaging solutions and services portfolio to include DoseMonitor. Adding DoseMonitor provides our client’s the edge they need to efficiently keep abreast of regulations pertaining to radiation safety in their facilities.”
DoseMonitor’s capabilities include:

• Automated data collection for computed tomography (CT), mammography, direct radiography (DR), interventional radiography, and cardiac angiography.
• Advanced report generation, including dose by technologist by procedure, dose by physician by procedure, mammography reporting (organ and mean glandular dose), and age range support for alerts and notifications.
• Intelligent patient search—by name, partial name, medical record, and/or accession number.
• Compatibility with VMware®-based implementations, enabling hospitals to “virtualize” hardware on existing servers, reducing the need for new hardware and decreasing the total IT effort required to implement the solution.
• Support for direct data exchange with Nuance’s Powerscribe 360 | Reporting that places the dose index data directly into the interpretive report. bout PHS Technologies Group LLC PHS Technologies Group, LLC is a division of PACSHealth, LLC, a medical software development company based in Scottsdale, AZ, that develops software systems for medical imaging technology.
