Outline of SonicDICOM PACS Cloud
This service enables you to
store medical images in the cloud and, simply by accessing a URL from a
PC or tablet, to view them from anywhere in the world.
By making
use of this service, it is easy to share medical images with other
medical facilities.
In addition, as there is no need to install a
server in a medical facility, no costs are incurred for purchasing,
updating, or managing server equipment, so the system can be operated
with low initial cost.

[Usage situations]
1) Using it as the main PACS, or
as a backup for the main PACS
As there is no need to have a server
in the hospital, and data can be stored in a physically remote location,
you can protect against the risk of data loss due to hardware failure or
natural disasters.

2) Viewing images from outside facilities
Images can be viewed at
any time regardless of the situation or place, whether at home or on the
move.
Also, in cases such as nighttime emergencies, when the
doctor-in-charge is not present in the hospital, a doctor outside the
hospital can view the images.

3) Sharing medical images
Medical images can be shared with other
facilities and radiologists from countries with a higher level of
medical care to request radiogram interpretations.

4) Personal usage (doctors, researchers, students, patients)
You
can store collected medical images and use them for research and
presentations at academic conferences.
Also, as the patient can
store his/her own or family members’ medical images, this can be used
for disclosure of medical history or second opinions.

JIUN has launched this service as part of the efforts to meet SDGs
(Sustainable Development Goals), and through this service we are working
to promote medical collaboration going beyond national borders and to
rectify medical care disparities around the world. Furthermore, this
service has been developed with the support of Japan’s Ministry of
Economy, Trade and Industry.

[About usage charges]
3GB of storage capacity is
available for free.

[Future plans]
With the addition of paid plans,
official service will be provided within a few months.
