From QR code scan to worklist assignment: the importer workflow at a glance.<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Patients increasingly bring imaging data from a variety of patient portals. For medical staff in hospitals, practices, or medical care centers (MVZs), this often means logging in, downloading, unzipping a ZIP file, and uploading the data again. This takes time and introduces potential sources of error.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is where the mRay Importer<\/a><\/strong> comes in. It transfers external DICOM and non-DICOM data (e.g., JPG, PNG, PDF) into the PACS in a structured way. Each file is clearly assigned to a patient and a Modality Worklist order, so that even external data arrives consistently in the existing systems. The application is web-based, usable on desktop and mobile devices, and requires no local installation. The connection to PACS, HIS, and RIS is vendor-independent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The workflow in four steps<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Select files:<\/strong> via drag & drop, as a local file, or by scanning a QR code<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Assign patient:<\/strong> automatically via DICOM Modality Worklists or manually<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Review and edit:<\/strong> add or correct DICOM metadata<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Validate and send:<\/strong> transfer to the PACS, HIS, or RIS with transparent status display<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    mRay Scan: All patient portals in one interface<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

    The entry point for portal-based import is mRay Scan<\/strong>, a component of the mRay Importer. Instead of following a separate process for each portal, the patient\u2019s QR code is captured using a smartphone, tablet, handheld scanner, or desktop. The data is processed automatically and is available directly in mRay or, depending on the configuration, in the PACS. The DLX standard is supported automatically, and non-DLX portals can be added. Optionally, patients can perform the scan themselves. A generated invitation link is sent by email and enables the upload of imaging data in a simple workflow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
