Systems and methods for radiation entry in dose management

A method for a radiation manual entry tool (RMET), comprising:

• receiving, via a network, a first user input in a first format comprising a standard markup language, the first user input requesting access to a modality worklist;
• transforming the first user input in the first format to a second format comprising a standard for medical data transmission;
• transmitting the first user input in the second format via the network to a radiology information system to access the modality worklist stored at the radiology information system;
• receiving the modality worklist in the first format from the radiology information system via the network;
• receiving a second user input in the first format via the network, the second user input including manually entered radiation dose information for a scheduled procedure of the modality worklist;
• transforming the second user input in the first format to the second format;
• transmitting the second user input in the second format to a dose management system via the network to submit the manually entered radiation dose information for the scheduled procedure of the modality worklist;
• and
• receiving a message confirming receipt of the manually entered radiation dose information for the scheduled procedure.

A system, comprising:

• a user input system implemented at a workstation;
• a radiology information system (RIS) stored at a first location;
• a dose management system (DMS) stored at a second location;
• and
• a radiation manual entry tool (RMET) stored at a server communicably coupled to each of the RIS, the DMS, and the user input system via a network, and remote from each of the first location and the second location, the RMET including instructions to:
• receive a first user input in a first format from the user input system requesting access to a modality worklist stored at the RIS;
• transform the first user input to a second format or a third format;
• transmit the first user input in the second format, the third format, or a combination of the second format and the third format to the RIS via the network;
• receive the modality worklist from the RIS;
• receive from the workstation via the network a second user input in the first format, the second user input including manually entered radiation dose information for a scheduled procedure of the modality worklist;
• transform the second user input in the first format to the second format or the third format;
• transmit the second user input in the second format, the third format, or a combination of the second format and the third format to the DMS via the network;
• and
• receive a message from the DMS confirming receipt of the manually entered radiation dose information for the scheduled procedure.
