  1. X-ray room of the Consulting and Diagnosis Department provides X-ray examination and follow-up examination of outpatients arriving to the Institute for consultation service from different regions of Ukraine. The pediatric patients coming for admission to the disease prevention children’s center of the Institute are also examined. The urgent patients delivered to the institute are also examined. The X-ray room is equipped with 2012 year made digital X-ray and fluoroscopic system and system for axial X-ray images of the knee joints.

For convenience and the radiologist’s work place arrangement, a system for collecting, processing, storing and transmitting data was proposed and implemented.

All information obtained during X-ray examinations from all devices is transmitted over the network to a single database and is available for all users. This information can be printed, exported to a computer, on a flash drive, recorded on a disk, sent for consultation to other medical institutions.

The data are processed with the software that is used for visualizing, storing, and exporting images. These images suppose the following sources: standard DICOM modalities (CT, MP, US, CR, etc.) or digital pictures (jpeg, tiff, bmp, etc.).

Up-to-date radiology department with modern X-ray equipment serves as eyes of our orthopedists and traumatologists, proud to look towards the present and the future.
