PACS Administrator Course: Training in Imaging Informatics (Nov 18 - 22, 2024)
PACS Administrator Course: Training in Imaging Informatics is organized by Medical Technology Management Institute (MTMI) and will be held from Nov 18 - 22, 2024.
Description:
MTMI's PACS Administrator Course aims at providing all of the essential skills and knowledge necessary for the successful planning, implementation and maintenance of a PACS (now called MIMPS by FDA), or other radiology systems.
This program helps prepare students for the Certified Imaging Informatics Professional (CIIP) certification exam. Major topics include a comprehensive guide to DICOM and HL7, Teleradiology, PACS architecture, integrating the healthcare enterprise, and electronic medical records. In addition, they will gain insights into the cutting-edge imaging informatics platform integrated into the system.
The deployment of Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS) in radiology is changing the way imaging services are provided. Enterprise PACS management represents an ongoing challenge for Radiology and IT personnel and their vendor partners.
Educational Objectives:
At the completion of this course, participants will have:
• Acquired the essentials in preparation for the Certified Imaging Informatics Professional (CIIP) examination, sponsored and accredited by the American Board of Imaging Informatics (ABII) which was founded by the • Society for Imaging Informatics in Medicine (SIIM) and the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT).
• An understanding of the practical and operational issues essential to a successful PACS implementation.
• A functional knowledge of day to day PACS maintenance activities.
• A practical understanding of the DICOM and HL7 standards.
• An understanding of how PACS integrates with other hospital systems.
