As the medical field changes so must we. Time, productivity, and accuracy become paramount. We have developed software to provide the information needed by the attending physician to better care for his patient in a timely manner. Do you ever wonder why you can get an immediate unconfirmed electrocardiographic (ECG) report and wait up to several days for an echo report?
With this software the technologist prepares a professional unconfirmed echocardiographic report after the examination for immediate distribution. The over-reading physician reviews and edits the saved report as needed. The report is then printed, signed and sent to the appropriate sites, either by hard copy, fax, e-mail or stored to a disk.
