X-Ray Results Delivered Via E-Mail

An article from Yahoo News titled “E-Mail System Delivers X-Ray Results” introduces a new e-mail based delivery system for radiology reports.

According to the article, “a new electronic mail-based notification system ensures that doctors learn x-ray findings fast.” A report of the new system was recently presented at a radiology society meeting.

While the system was designed for medical purposes it is important to note the article stated that “the source code for the notification system is not proprietary, and it should be available from the federal government.”

There is a very good possibility that a system like this could be modified to serve the chiropractic profession. With so many changes in imaging occurring and with the speed and connections the internet offers, the process of taking and reporting on x-rays is sure to change dramatically.
