Dictation services for Radiology with the integration of the two services. More about the hospital integration services can be
found here. Recently I have posted about Philips and their investments with the manufacturing of MRI machines in China as well, so they have a pretty large portfolio of products in place or on the rise so the completion of the software end of the project with adding speech recognition to the PACS imaging portion of the business makes sense.
For electronic medical record connectivity, there is also the Common User Interface designed by Microsoft and open to developers and all interested parties to develop an interface with the latest technology from Microsoft and create a connection to the Amalga HIS.
More information can be found here from Dr. Crounse at his MSDN blog with some updated information added last week along with all the developer tool kits and other additional information to work with some of the latest dot net technologies including Silverlight. If you watched any of the Olympics online, then you are familiar with the robust format Silverlight can bring to the user interface. BD
