• Ensure that the PACS and any dependent add-on systems are integrated and supportable.
• Ensure that all system integrations are up-to-date and stable (e.g. Cerner and RadNet, PowerScribe 360, SonoReview, and Provincial Diagnostic Imaging Viewer (PDIV).
• Ensure that the infrastructure is aligned with Island Health Medical Imaging service needs, IMIT operations, vendor recommendations, and industry best practices.
