World-Wide Searchable Image Repository For Leading Healthcare & MedTech Manufacturing Company
Project Requirements
Create a world-wide searchable image repository that could leverage past clinical trial data and make future healthcare device development more efficient.
Result
Working primarily in Java and Angular, and leveraging open source libraries to develop advanced search functionality, Intertech first made sure the requirements were clearly defined between all stakeholders and ultimately met the IT department’s expectations. Putting into place an agile development framework, they implemented a minimum viable product and added features over-the-course-of multiple iterations and frequent releases. Following a process of testing, data migration, and gradual adoption across global offices, the result led to quicker and more cost-effective research and development of new healthcare products for the company, saving time and money.
Healthcare Case Study – Overview
Intertech consultants designed and implemented a custom-built central repository for the client’s medical imagery. Custom data loaders ingested metadata embedded in the imagery, as well as previously generated analysis by researchers. This metadata and analysis included but were not limited to necessary subject information, anatomical region, image slice thickness. Using dynamic search features, Intertech was able to quickly and efficiently locate relevant images across the company’s worldwide business units.
A UI/UX consultant worked closely with the client to craft a custom experience focused on intuitiveness, ease of use, and efficiency. Regular working sessions with the product owners and users allowed us to shape the application to meet the client’s exact needs.
On the back end, Intertech implemented a hybrid solution that consisted of both a relational database (Microsoft SQL Server) and a document database (Elastic). The relational database facilitated the definition of a hierarchical data model with well-defined relationships. It also ensured data integrity with atomic transactions. The document database allowed us to define a sophisticated search mechanism that would have been nearly impossible to implement with a pure SQL solution.
Finally, Intertech implemented the user interface as a single-page application (SPA) with Angular. This choice of technology resulted in a faster and more responsive application. After considering several existing medical imagery options, none of which fully met the client’s needs, we created a custom medical image viewer and integrated it into the web application.
