Efficient radiation dose management with iQ-DOSE

Radiological examinations are frequently used in today’s medicine due to the sound, non-invasive diagnostic possibilities they offer. With the increasing number of those imaging studies, however, it is also necessary to keep an eye on the radiation to which patients are exposed. As a consequence, many countries have established regulations and guidelines, in order to protect patients from unnecessary radiation and to ensure an efficient radiation dose management.

With iQ-DOSE, IMAGE has developed an innovative and cost-effective radiation dose management solution which provides imaging centers and hospitals the possibility to manage doses with minimum human effort.

iQ-DOSE allows to automatically monitor and document the radiation dose applied during imaging procedures and creates automatic overdose notifications to enable medical institutions to immediately take needed measures and to meet legal requirements.

Here are some of iQ-DOSE’s highlights:

Automatic monitoring, documentation and analysis of patient radiation dose information
Easy installation and configuration
Minimum human interaction effort
Vendor-neutral solution compatible with any PACS
Support of virtually all CT scanners, angiography, fluoroscopy, mammography and x-ray devices
Customizable dose alarm threshold per procedure/modality to meet local reporting duties
Clear visualization of evaluation results through traffic light colors
Overdose justification using text macros or free text
Automatic overdose notification e-mails
Daily, weekly or monthly report e-mails
Export of monitoring results via .csv for further processing, e.g. in Excel
