r/PACSAdmin

I am applying for my first PACS job. I have never had an interview with technical questions. Can anybody give me some technical questions that I can review?

I'm working on trying to integrate our new, upgraded Arthrex Synergy Scope to Phillips VuePACs and am struggling with getting the video files to send. The vendor (arthrex) has Historically not transferred these but with the new version they can be.

Has anyone done this and what is your transfer syntax setup as?

Wondering if this is possible as I can do PS360 to PSone but I cant seem to do it the older version of PS360

Hi all, I need some advice. I currently work in a role where I release radiology images to patients. It’s a non clinical role, mostly paperwork. I’ve been in this role for about 3.5 years and am interested in moving towards a PACs admin role. I use PACs on a daily basis so I’m very familiar with DICOM and how images are stored and moved. I also deal with other applications such as AGFA Enterprise and PowerShare. I’m also familiar with HL7 messaging, FHIR format and the structure of how these messages move throughout the system. I’ve even made a small project showcasing how messages are generated and processed through Mirth Connect.

Being what the job market is today, I’ve been having a hard time finding a role and I don’t know what else to do besides to keep expanding my knowledge on my own basis. Are there any certs I can get that would potentially help me stand out? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hi everyone! I was just curious if there was anyone in this group that transitioned from being an imaging tech to PACS or imaging informatics analyst and if so, was it relatively easy to transition? Did you take any courses to bridge the gap between IT and the imaging part? Do you have any advice on how to begin this process?
Thanks in advance!
