Color Cloud's Innovative Solutions to Reduce Healthcare Costs:
For hospitals and clinics, it’s important to be equipped with advance tools using which they can continue with the different business functions without any hassle. Color Cloud’s CISCOM plain paper print solution is an innovative solution that helps share radiological images with physicians and parents. It’s a cost-effective way to produce good quality prints that physicians can use for treatment planning and consultation.
CISCOM (Cloud Imaging Solutions & Communications in Medicine) is the primary international standard for handling, storing, printing and transmission of medical images and related information. The solution enables printing medical images such as X-ray, MRI, CT scan, Ultrasound and Nuclear Medicine on a range of media and in colour, on plain paper instead of costly X-Ray films that are environment unfriendly as well. It’s a cloud based solution which allows access to medical images, on any smart device for reference and consultations.
CISCOM paper printing impacts the environment positively, as the plain paper print reduces the need for chemical-based film processing and equipment, and further can be shredded and recycled.

CISCOM: A customer friendly solution
‘Color Cloud’ is well known for its range of advanced products that help transform paper-based business systems into automated processes, thereby improving business workflow and productivity. However, in the Indian healthcare scenario, digital imaging alone is not a practical solution because it ignores the key people involved – the physicians and the parents. Physicians usually prefer to use physical images so that they don’t need to search databases or deal with DVDs. For comprehending the diagnostic reports and explaining them to parents, physicians require high quality images that can be reviewed and shared easily. This is where ‘Color Cloud’ CISCOM paper printing solution helps the best.
What are the reasons to invest in Color Cloud’s DICOM paper printing?
- Simplified Workflow & Smooth Integration: Color Cloud CISCOM solution is compatible with the DICOM 3.0 standard. It fits seamlessly into existing workflows, and there is no need for special training as it is operated just like a film printer. The solution helps eliminate the need for special printing, handling, storage, transportation, and other infrastructure needed for film, thereby simplifying work process, leading to faster results and higher acceptance.
- Excellent Image Quality: The solution receives CISCOM images from a modality, and then prints them on CISCOM Printer. To achieve near-film quality prints with depth and detail, the hardware and software have been optimized for medical imagery, ensuring deep, saturated blacks. You can further fine-tune the print quality through the simple user interface.
- Better Record-Keeping: Paper prints are easier to store and transport as compared to films, making them easily accessible. Paper can be annotated easily as well. Moreover, paper prints are quite durable, since they are less light-sensitive than films.
- Remarkable Cost-Savings: Color Cloud CISCOM solution helps you reduce medical image printing costs by around 50%, compared to traditional film-based solution. From beginning till the end, working with film is expensive and labour-intensive. Replacing film with paper allows you to share images with minimal expense. You also save on compliance and other environmental costs, associated with the usage of chemical-based film.
