This presentation will introduce you to the concept of a regional diagnostic imaging repository. We will look at some of the challenges associated with sharing outside imaging across multiple organizations as it relates to the patient identification and technical interoperability. The presentation will identify quantifiable benefits that have been achieved by providing sites access to external diagnostic imaging and report.
