iQ-SYSTEM PACS for Radiology Teaching

It’s not only hospitals, imaging centers and radiology practices that benefit from working with iQ software solutions. Educational institutions that train the next generations of radiology specialists have also discovered the advantages of medical imaging software in the classroom setting. 

A teaching PACS that is used to train medical students and junior doctors in medical image interpretation and clinical reporting needs to fulfil specific requirements. While iQ-SYSTEM PACS is optimized primarily for patient care, it is also perfectly suited for educational purposes. 

Highlights

Remote access

In times of online lectures and distance learning, being able to offer remote access is a must. With iQ-SYSTEM PACS, students can conveniently access medical imaging teaching cases at any time and from anywhere.

Image annotation

iQ-SYSTEM PACS enables teachers and students to annotate/tag images or studies with key words for later filtering, reviewing or case-based demonstrations.

Quizzes and exams

To test the students’ knowledge and assess their learning progress, quiz or exam tools are a great option to integrate into iQ-SYSTEM PACS.
