Customer Comments About Complete Radiology Workflow The RIS/PACS combination is awesome. Having everything together gives us a lot of flexibility. We can make this system work how the radiologists want it to work. Excerpt from the 2009 Revival of RIS report KLAS Enterprises, LLC. All rights reserved. About Working from Anywhere Our radiologists do a majority of their reading from home. They love this functionality. It is very easy for them. Even our radiologists that are not super technically savvy have been able to easily adopt it and use it effectively. Excerpt from the 2008 Community Hospital PACS report KLAS Enterprises, LLC. All rights reserved. About Color-Coded Workflow Status I really like how this system is color coded. With a glance, we can follow the patients around and know where we need to take them next. We can see every modality in the PACS, so we don't have to click on multiple things to find out where the patients are. Seeing everything there is really convenient.

It took about three months, although we were originally scheduled six to nine months for implementation. The whole process just went off very smoothly and Avreo was here to support us during the go live. Excerpt from the 2008 Community Hospital PACS report KLAS Enterprises, LLC. All rights reserved.
