HFA II-
i
series perimeters offer many useful networking capabilities for patient data, test data,
and image files. It is very important that only an Information Technology (IT) professional or
Network Administrator sets up your HFA with an office network. Establishing a network can be a
complex and costly task, if not undertaken by a professional. For the balance of this chapter, the
term “Network Administrator” can refer to either an IT professional, a Network Administrator,
or a System Administrator.
Your office network must meet certain minimum re
quirements in order to support HFA-NET Pro
or DICOM Gateway. Your Network Administrator must ensure that your network system meets
these requirements. Details on Licensing HFA-NET Pro and DICOM Gateway 2.0 can be found on
page 14-3. Review this chapter with your Network Administrator so that your user preferences can
be programmed into the network settings. Once your network is set up, these networking
capabilities allow an
HFA II-
i
perimeter to:
• import work lists from non-DICOM and DICOM EMR/PMS
systems
• import patient information and exam data from a DICOM system (DICOM Gateway 2.0 only)
• export patient data, image files, and test re
sults to non-DICOM and DICOM EMR/PMS systems
• export raw exam data and reports to a DICOM system (DICOM Gateway 2.0 only)
• export patient data, test results, and image files (PDF and TIFF
format) to a file server
