Digital Images

With leading-edge technology, CMH uses a Web-based Picture Archival Communication System (PACS) for the storage of images. The system allows images to be distributed throughout the facility within seconds.

Citizens Memorial Hospital partners with Virtual Radiologic Professionals (vRad) to interpret and process patient images when CMH radiologists are unavailable. vRad is a leading national teleradiology firm.

Physicians contracted through vRad are board-certified with a majority fellowship trained. This team of physicians participates in a quality assurance peer review process and is rated at a 99.7% accuracy score.
