East Georgia Regional Medical Center also has PACS, which provides immediate access to electronic images through our network, as well as after-hours and weekends between the hospital and consulting radiologists.
PACs enables physicians to have access to images throughout our health system, and to discuss impressions and recommendations for treatment. PACs also enables us to send images to highly qualified specialty trained radiologists signficantly enhancing your quality of care.
A technologist at the hospital can transmit radiological images to the off-site radiologists with a touch of a button for faster consultations.
PACs is more than a time and money saver--in an emergency, it can be a life saver as well.
