Hi Frank, Can you elaborate what you mean when you say workflow like RIS. The wiki here https://bahmni.atlassian.net/wiki/display/BAH/Radiology+and+PACS explains it briefly what Bahmni supports.
So it is definitely possible to connect Bahmni to a modality via PACS and send radiology orders to it. And then the results can be seen by clicking on a link on patient dashboard.
A PACS or certain functionalities of PACS (mini-PACS) (ORM interface to listen to ORM messages sent by Bahmni and then communicate to modality, worklist server, DICOM server) would be required in between.
If the hospital doesn’t already have a PACS, DCM4CHEE can be used.
I have recently done a slightly different setup than what is indicated in the diagram you shared. The setup looks something like below
A feature to alert to bahmni that the image is into the PACS is not present. But if the image is not present the link gives a message indicating that the image is not present.
Linking to Bahmni with other modalities should also be possible theoretically we haven’t yet tried it out at any of our existing implementations.
You can try the steps mentioned in the implementation guide and pose specific questions where you face a difficulty. https://bahmni.atlassian.net/wiki/display/BAH/Radiology+and+PACS+Integration
