The NDAA Interagency Imaging Prototype
Project is a joint initiative between the
Department of Defense (DoD) and the Department of Veterans Affairs
(VA) to design, develop and implement bi-directional medical image
sharing capabilities between the two agencies. The scope of this
task includes demonstrating the successful first-time
bi-directional image data sharing between the DINPACS systems at
William Beaumont Army Medical Center (WBAMC) and the VistA
Imaging/Remote Image view stations at the VA El Paso HCS, and
subsequently at Fort Carson (Evans Army Community Hospital), Navy
Hospital Great Lakes in Great Lakes, IL, as well as the BIA
deployed in the VA secured Austin Automation Center in Austin, TX.
In support of this important initiative, CPS provides full
life-cycle development services to include requirements analysis,
architecture analysis and implementation, software engineering,
program management, metrics capture and analysis, performance
analysis and testing. CPS successful performance under this
contract resulted in the development of the PACS Integrator, which
is presently being deployed by the CPS Team to multiple DoD and VA
sites to include Walter Reed Army Medical Center, Bethesda National
Naval Medical Center and Keesler AFB Medical Center. CPS continues
to provide software development support with Microsoft C#.Net using
Capability Maturity Model best practices and industry standard
object oriented patterns and techniques.
