2.1
What is the Networkflow Audit
This audit was designed to collect information on your network, your DICOM equipment, your workflow and your
dataflow. Once this information is collected, it will be used to determine the best
way the system can fit into your facility. The information will also be used to ease and speed the integration of the system
into your facility .This audit is intended to be performed before the system
is quoted to you. With all facts uncovered, GE can prepare a more accurate quote and minimize “surprises” at the time
of install.
You should fill this out with the GE Healthcare representative. They will be able to answer any questions you may have.
