 Peter Killcommons, a longtime executive in the
health care field, has guided Medweb for more
than two decades. Working in developing countries
such as Afghanistan, he and his team offer
radiology, telemedicine, and disaster response
services that help circumvent challenges related to
lack of infrastructure and resources. Peter
Killcommons has been able to quickly expand his
health care enterprise through the use of an
Internet-based virtualPACS. This takes the place of
cost-prohibitive dedicated servers and provides
accessibility from virtually any remote location
worldwide.

 Through the Medweb virtualPACS platform, health
care facilities receive a no-cost short-term DICOM
(Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine)
archive that ensures the integrity of locally stored
studies and creates multiple redundant copies that are
backed up as archives off site. Pete Killcommons
emphasizes that this cloud computing solution is
extremely reliable and enables the rapid expansion of
health care imaging enterprises that require dedicated
systems with low upfront costs. Designed to integrate
fully with the existing electronic health records system,
the Medweb PACS/EHR module unifies images and
texts in ways that streamline imaging functions.
