In many clinical trials, the ability to review and analyze medical images efficiently is critical to accurate endpoint adjudication. With imaging data playing an ever-growing role in clinical assessments, having a robust system for managing these images is no longer optional — it's essential. Ethical's eAdjudication® platform has integrated powerful imaging tools, including a DICOM viewer and the Orthanc PACS server, to support clinical teams in streamlining their adjudication workflows.
Seamless Management of Medical Images with eAdjudication®
Ethical's eAdjudication® platform offers an integrated solution for acquiring, storing, and reviewing medical images in clinical trials. At the heart of this feature is the lightweight Orthanc PACS server, an open-source solution widely recognized in medical communities. From ultrasounds and X-rays to advanced imaging modalities like MRIs and PET scans, this server enables reliable and efficient sharing of medical images for review.
Coupled with a fully equipped DICOM viewer, the platform allows Endpoint Adjudication Committee members to access imaging data directly from the event page inside the platform with a simple click. The browser-based viewer provides a full suite of tools for analyzing images while maintaining flexibility. Images can also be downloaded for use with other viewers if required.
Streamlined Image Uploads and Metadata Redaction
The eAdjudication® DICOM solution supports both manual and automated image uploads, making it adaptable to the unique requirements of different studies. Metadata redaction is equally flexible, allowing sponsors to manage it manually or automate it using predefined criteria. This ensures that sensitive data is handled securely and complies with regulatory standards.
Why PACS and DICOM Standards Matter
The integration of DICOM - a universally recognized standard for medical imaging - ensures that eAdjudication® aligns with the interoperability needs of modern clinical trials. By separating image data from associated metadata, DICOM simplifies processes like anonymization and encryption, which are critical for data privacy. The PACS server, meanwhile, facilitates fast and secure image storage and sharing, eliminating the logistical hurdles of traditional methods.
