Cloud-Based Radiology for TB Prevalence Studies: Efficient Data Capture and Reporting with HCF 

A selected group of the general population from various areas in Lesotho undergoes radiology screening for TB as part of funded prevalence studies by the WHO. 

HCF, a comprehensive cloud-based software solution, captures the patient’s data provided through questionnaires as well as the radiology images (DICOM) into the EMR providing an full overview of the patient’s history, symptoms and X-Ray results. The radiologist, based offsite, views the patient’s history and X-Ray online and completes the findings thus creating a digital electronic signed report which could be shared or distributed electronically to authorized parties. Comprehensive reports and statistical analysis are provided to the funders as all information is digitally captured. These reports can be customized to the client’s specifications.
