Detroit-based Compuware professional services provided project management and production support throughout the implementation of the picture archival and communication system (PACS), across Oakwood's network of hospitals and selected ambulatory sites in Southeast Michigan. Oakwood physicians now have access to patient diagnostic images from any network-connected PC, allowing greater collaboration of patient care. Radiology turnaround time has improved by 50 percent, Compuware stated, enabling physicians to obtain patient results more quickly and to make more efficient treatment decisions.
