Once a patient gets his or her CT or X-Ray scan done at one of these RDC, the digital image of the scan is transmitted via the network to the servers in the Guwahati CDC into the centrally deployed RIS-PACS (Radiology Information System – Picture Archiving and Communication System) and makes these available to radiologists and specialist radiographers based out of Guwahati, New Delhi and other cities. These radiologists use the RIS-PACS system to access the patient scans from Guwahati and New Delhi to provide online report which can be printed at the local RDC and handed over to the patients. Further, the system allows each patient to access their scans online and maintains their patient history.

In the first phase, this program is beginning its roll out in 11 districts in Assam, namely, Guwahati, Mangaldai, Lakhimpur, Hailakandi, Nagaon, Kokrajhar, Dhubri, Haflong, Jorhat, Barpeta and Silchar.

HealthFore Technologies Limited proudly participates in this program as the provider of the Magnum Infinity Imaging (RIS-PACS) solution that powers the program. HealthFore further has provided infrastructure, consultancy and will manage day to day operations of the centers for NRHM over the period of five years.
