When you install a new PACS, you will need to consider data migration to the new system. Data migration gets your data out of the legacy system, and frees you from the headaches, maintenance costs and space requirements of the old PACS.

Data migration projects may also include data cleansing operations that remove errors in legacy data and improve linkage of images to reports in the migrated data.

Successful and efficient data migration requires knowledge and tools specific to both the source and destination systems, in addition to in-depth understanding of imaging orders and results data.

Migratek brings comprehensive knowledge of DICOM and imaging informatics to bear on each data migration project. Our specialized tooling extracts image data at the highest possible speeds from legacy PACS systems, or from off-line stores of modality media when no prior PACS is in place. Our data cleanup and mapping services transform legacy data to forms most useful in the new PACS.
