The electronic radiology practice at Mayo Clinic Jacksonville

Abstract

We have begun a project to implement an Electronic (filmless) Radiology Practice (ERP) at Mayo Clinic Jacksonville. This project is integrated with the implementation of a project (Automated Clinical Practice-ACP) to eliminate circulation and archival of the current paper medical record. The ERP will result in elimination of Screen/Film radiography and the transmittal of film throughout the institution by the end of 1996. In conjunction with the ACP, paper and film will not circulate within the Clinic by the end of next year.
