IBM Healthcare and Life Sciences Grid Medical Archive Solution
Facilitating the sharing and long-term storage of medical images and research data
Healthcare organizations today are experiencing an explosion in the volume of medical images and research data. Serving an aging population that requires more and more exams and procedures, these organizations are coping with an annual storage growth rate that is nearly 52 percent. In fact, their storage needs are almost doubling every 18 months. At the same time, healthcare providers and researchers are becoming more distributed. To provide quality care, doctors need easy access to medical images and data across departments and facilities—even across states and continents.
The Grid Medical Archive Solution is designed to meet this growing need by facilitating the sharing and storage of critical medical images and research data across departments and geographies. By connecting silos of digital images such as those generated by radiology and cardiology, it provides easier image access and long-term storage that complies with Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) requirements.
