Manufacturer-independent radiotherapy plans in PACS and image distribution

Solutions for radiotherapy

The DICOM-RT Module enables the visualization of radiotherapy plans on CHILI workstations and also in the web-based image distribution. CHILI thus provides a manufacturer-independent solution for the archiving and image distribution of radiotherapy plans.

Features

  • External radiotherapy and brachytherapy plans
  • Visualization and analysis of target volumes and risk organs (VOIs), dose distributions, dose-volume histograms (DVH), RT beams (radiation fields) and RT plan information
  • Manufacturer-independent visualization and storage
  • Radiotherapy plans available at workstations and in image distribution

Benefits

  • Quality improvement due to availability of the plans at all workplaces within the institution
  • Cost saving due to archiving in the PACS instead of in the planning workstation
  • Workflow optimization

Suitable products

The DICOM RT-Viewer extends the functionality of workstations and of the Web Viewer by visualizing DICOM RT structures, dose distributions and RT planning information from radiotherapy or brachytherapy plans.

CHILI Web is a software solution for image distribution and teleradiology based on the well-tried CHILI PACS architecture which is capable of being extended. The system is IHE-compliant and can smoothly be integrated into the clinical workflow. The CHILI web server receives images from the imaging modalities or from a PACS via DICOM and saves them in a relational database system. The web server may be used as an interface to the existing PACS and can make PACS images available to web users.

CHILI Web

Features

  • No software installation on the Clients, since web-based
  • No dependence on specific browsers or versions
  • Can be called from other systems (HIS, RIS, office computer, electronic medical record, ...)
  • Users have the same setting at all workplaces
  • Can be combined with PACS systems from other manufacturers

Benefits

  • Saves resources, since no configuration needs to be made for user accounts and no deployment required 
  • Increase of process quality: All images are available at all workplaces at any time
  • Cost saving, as the viewer can also be used for reading and reporting
  • Multiple uses, as encryption and compression enable its use for teleradiology

International standard interfaces optimize integration with other information systems such as e.g. HIS, RIS or office computer systems. The most important standards are DICOM, HL7 and the rules of the "Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise" IHE initiative.

Please find below our certificates on standard conformance of our interfaces

Features

  • Transmission of requests from RIS/HIS
  • Transmission of images from modalities
  • Transmission and storage of reports
  • Teleradiology

Benefits

  • Open for the combination of the best applications for the task to be completed (Best of Breed)
  • Fast and uncomplicated integration and cost saving due to standard interfaces
  • Workload reduction and higher process quality due to optimal workflow
  • Avoidance of redundancy

The CHILI solutions are based on modules for communication, storage and visualization of multimedial medical data. They are in compliance with international standards and were developed under a quality management system according to ISO 13485 and ISO 9001 and are FDA 510(k) approved. The modules can easily be integrated in applications from other manufacturers.
