Enterprise Content Management Provider Announces New Services and US FDA Clearance of DICOM Image Viewer

The new solution addresses data sharing and transfer, and includes a governance module to help users comply with regulatory policies and manage sensitive information, a service to help users customize and transform their clinical workflows, and a partner integration service.

The new solution, developed by Box (Redwood City, CA, USA), is intended specifically for hospitals and uses the Box enterprise content management platform. The system helps streamline referral management, and allows medical professionals to view and share Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) files (including X-Ray, Computed Tomography (CT) and ultrasound exams), and facilitates access to data in proprietary hospital enterprise information systems.

The DICOM viewer uses the Box platform and allows clinicians to view DICOM images from the web or mobile devices, provides secure collaboration and image sharing across sites, and remote diagnostics.

The Box will also be further integrated with the TigerText US Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) compliant messaging solution. The TigerText mobile interface will enable clinicians to collaborate on clinical images for consultations.

Itamar Kandel, president of TigerConnect, TigerText, said, “As the leading messaging solution for hospitals across the nation, we are excited to deepen our integration with Box around their new Box DICOM Viewer. Leveraging our APIs, Box will give doctors the ability to access imaging studies on their mobile phones via the Box DICOM Viewer. This enhances our ability to provide important clinical information in a secure format at the point-of-care.”
