Medical imaging and efficient sharing of medical imaging information

A method for re-identifying and merging data using a medical analytics platform including (a) an analytics service provider (ASP) system storing de-identified medical study data and (b) a protected health information (PHI) system storing PHI data including information personally identifiable to one or more patients, the method comprising:

• obtaining, by a client device and from the ASP system, an access token for the client device to access PHI data stored on the PHI system, wherein the access token is encrypted by the ASP system and only readable by the ASP system;
• retrieving, by the client device and from the PHI system, information indicating a list of available medical studies by using at least the access token;
• selecting a medical study from the list of available medical studies;
• retrieving, by the client device and from the ASP system, de-identified medical study data associated with the selected medical study;
• retrieving, by the client device and from the PHI system, study PHI data associated with the selected medical study based, at least in part, on the access token;
• requesting, by the client device and to the ASP system, to load an application for merging medical study data;
• merging, by the client device, the study PHI data and the de-identified medical study data to generate re-identified medical study data;
• wherein the list of available medical studies includes obfuscated study identifiers for each medical study and wherein the study PHI data associated with the selected medical study includes non-obfuscated study identifier for the selected medical study;
• wherein retrieving de-identified medical study data associated with the selected medical study comprises sending, from the client device to the ASP system, a request including the obfuscated study identifier for the selected medical study;
• and
• presenting, by the client device, the re-identified medical study data to a user.
