Cloud-based PACS is like regular PACS but with a crucial difference: its storage and features are provided by cloud-based servers.
Basically, PostDICOM deals with the hosting, retrieval and maintenance of data. You can upload your DICOM images (CT, MRI, X-ray, Ultrasound, etc.) and non-DICOM documents (JPEG, BMP, PNG, MP4, PDF, etc) to PostDICOM. You can store, view, create reports and share them with patients and doctors.

Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) consist of electronic, mechanic and software components.
Each component has different life span, and sooner or later one of them will stop functioning. Then, you will face the hard reality of losing your patient records, forever.
Do not wait for the failure occur. Prepare a backup and recovery plan. Then, take action immediately.
For many years, clinics and hospitals used on-premise PACS on the site. In those systems, they distribute DICOM images by burning images into CDs and distribute them by mail. Distribution of CDs is a cumbersome process, and no one knows when the recipient gets the CDs and when will the evaluation occurs. Moreover, CDs contain a basic DICOM viewer and they support only one operating system. If the CD viewer is not compatible with the operating system of the recipient, they cannot view and process the images at all.
Do not hassle with DICOM CDs. Use PostDICOM to share DICOM images, and clinical documents with patients, doctors and reporters. Create a share link with an access password, then, share them with the recipients. As soon as they have the link and the password, they can access the images immediately.

PostDICOM Cloud PACS provides reporting workflow to be used by its users. You can create report templates by modality.
At every step of the reporting workflow, orders are assigned to the responsible user and mistakes are minimized.
PostDICOM operates on 12 different regions. Each region works isolated from each other and patient data (DICOM images, clinical documents, and patient information in the database) are stored only on that region. We use Microsoft Azure Cloud services and the data is stored in Microsoft Azure.
Available PostDICOM Regions are listed below:
PostDICOM Cloud API is provided as a Javascript library and it is designed in a way that it provides all of the functions needed by the Medical Companies.
Supported functions are uploading DICOM files, creating folders, searching, viewing and deleting patient orders.
Integrate your Hospital Information System (HIS), Radiology Information System (RIS) or Electronic Health Record (EHR) to the PostDICOM Cloud.
Some of the integration points are:
HL7 ADT (Admit Discharge Transfer) messages
HL7 ORM (Order Management) messages
HL7 IAN (Instance Available Notification) messages
HL7 ORU (Observation Result) message

PostDICOM uses secure communications (SSL) internally between its servers. Also, user requests are only supported over HTTPS. Moreover, when a user logs in, a session is created and it remains active until user logs out or a timeout occurs. Only requests from valid sessions are processed by PostDICOM servers.
PostDICOM uses AES 256 encryption by default. When user data reaches to PostDICOM, servers first encrypt data with AES 256 and then stores them on Microsoft Azure storage of that region.
All of the users have to use strong passwords for their accounts. Passwords must be at least 8 characters long and must contain at least one uppercase, one lowercase and one special character. This is enforced by PostDICOM password set up policy. Also, PostDICOM supports Two Factor Authentication (2FA) and users can use Two Factor Authentication (2FA).
