20150278444 | SYSTEMS AND DEVICES FOR ENCRYPTING, CONVERTING AND INTERACTING WITH MEDICAL IMAGES USING A MOBILE DEVICE - A network device and a peripheral device for attachment with a medical imaging device provides for the encryption and conversion of a medical image into a secure and standardized image file format as well as the communication of the encrypted and/or converted image to a secure server on a remote network. The devices may monitor all medical image files generated on the medical imaging device and encrypt and convert selected medical image files for transmission to a remotely connected device on another network, such as a server or a mobile device. An encryption and conversion unit may be incorporated within the hardware and software of a medical imaging device or another network device in order to provide the capability for encrypting a medical image for transmission to a remote network and for converting the medical image to a format that is compatible with a destination device or network. Systems and methods for real-time remote interaction with medical images is provided, which allows for medical images from a medical imaging device to be shared across a common user interface to users in multiple different locations. The users may then collaborate to discuss, annotate and review the image in real-time, improving the collaboration between users and reducing the amount of time needed to make a diagnosis. | 10-01-2015 |
