PACS Solutions for Orthopedics

Orthopedic surgeons face an ever-expanding set of challenges each day, including the pressure to reduce costs and deliver faster, higher-quality patient care. To meet these challenges, Avreo designed interORTHO—an innovative imaging workflow solution to manage the unique needs of orthopedic practices.

Orthopedic Workflow Optimization

Avreo designed interORTHO to innately meet the distinct imaging needs of orthopedic practices. As a single system with one database and one application, interORTHO optimizes your entire orthopedic imaging workflow including image acquisition, viewing, and archiving. interORTHO provides:

• Web-based worklists keep your practice on track by providing fast access to patient and study information relevant to patients with appointments scheduled on the current date.
• Avreo’s Masterfolder concept emulates a traditional radiology jacket—technologists, orthopedic surgeons, and office personal learn to use the system quickly with minimal training.
• Unique solution provides secure access to studies and patient information from any location. interORTHO requires only one server and does not install software on any other workstation.
• Configurable preferences automatically organize images within the viewer according to each orthopedic surgeon's needs.
• Robust diagnostic viewer offers extensive image review and comparison tools at your fingertips. Easily compare prior studies and review images in true size.
• Document scanning capabilities ensure that you can always locate all information associated with a patient in one organized system. Scan documents at the patient or study level as necessary.
• Easily send images or select studies to your radiology partners.
• Optional surgical templating module extends your surgical planning capabilities by incorporating OrthoView digital planning software into interORTHO.

Imaging Cost Management

With interORTHO, you can better manage the financial impact of imaging on your orthopedic practice:

• Reduce expenses associated with film and chemicals. If you choose, referring physicians can access reports images via the web. You can also burn imaging CDs for patients or referring physicians as necessary.
• Accurately record the exact procedures performed for each patient. Using the Tech QA module, technologists can change or add procedures as well as record any ancillary equipment required during the procedure. Many orthopedic facilities loose revenue unnecessarily by failing to record these additional procedures and ancillary equipment.

Simple Management and Administration

Your orthopedic facility has more important things to do than manage your PACS. That's why Avreo designed interORTHO to reside on a single server with a single database. In addition, interORTHO does not load software on any other computer. This results in simple management and administration.
