Centricity Clinical Archive

The Centricity Clinical Archive solution serves as the foundation for your enterprise imaging and data strategy by providing, multi-media image access, image capture and documentation, and enterprise imaging data analytics tools, to bring together clinically relevant data needed to enhance timely patient care at the bedside.

When you provide a more consistent, unified, and secure view of patient information, you create new opportunities to improve collaboration, boost efficiency, help facilitate faster critical treatment decisions, and lower costs.

The Centricity™ Clinical Archive Solution delivers this crucial single view, with a standards-driven solution that intelligently weaves longitudinal patient data from many different sources and systems together—and then makes it all available through a convenient web-based, zero-footprint² viewer that image-enables your EMR system.

Media Manager

Every picture tells a story. And when it comes to your patients, capturing and documenting visible light images at every step of the workflow helps provide vital details of their care journey.

Media Manager enables speedy acquisition and documentation of pictures directly from mobile devices, reducing the documentation time per patient case, helping avoid missed patient data and enhancing staff productivity.

Media Manager offers intuitive patient barcode or MRN identification and initiates a guided workflow to document case attributes. Images in their native formats are automatically uploaded to the XDS repository which simplifies access to patient records, across the enterprise.

Media Manager was jointly developed with the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC)⁴.
