Modelagem e implementação de um sistema de informação para otimização de exames de diagnósticos por imagens

Abstract

Information systems have played an important role in organizations, at productive processes, at documents organization and even at decision-making; medical area is also in this scenery. This work aims to present a model to implement an Information Systems in order to optimize exams of diagnosis by images. The development of this model used the most modern software production like: three layers development, distributed systems, and others. Trying to develop a product for Internet and interworkable, the system was structured in layers, applying the Model-Vision-Control concept that allows the necessary flexibility for development, and makes the maintenance more organized and structured. Free software was used to develop the system. The study was done in an images diagnostic radiology clinic in Ponta Grossa region, Paraná state. The challenge was to integrate images diagnosis equipments with computer network; this was done through DICOM protocol (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine), which standardizes transmission and reception of medical images. The result was a portable, flexible and adaptable product that joins all clients’ information and reduces operational costs, because it is not necessary to print film.
