Iron Mountain Adds X-ray On Demand to its Health Information Services

New Offering Scans and Digitizes Analog X-ray Films; Sends High Resolution Images to a Hospital’s Picture Archiving and Communications System; Frees up Valuable Hospital Floor Space

November 21, 2005

Boston, MA - Iron Mountain Incorporated (NYSE:IRM), the world’s trusted partner for records management and data protection services, today announced the addition of X-ray On Demand to its portfolio of specialized health information management services. This new solution provides a scanning and digitization service for radiology customers storing x-ray films with Iron Mountain, so that encrypted, high resolution DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) images can be sent to a hospital’s PACS (Picture Archiving and Communications System) via a secure connection.

X-ray On Demand allows radiologists to manage large analog x-ray film libraries and PACS images in parallel.As a result, radiologists can provide optimum levels of quality healthcare while operating as cost-efficiently as possible.Moving x-rays off site frees up valuable floor space for expanded revenue generating opportunities for healthcare providers and reduces expenses associated with clerical staff managing and hanging analog films.

In addition, X-ray On Demand saves time through faster, on-demand delivery of high resolution images, allows for side-by-side study comparisons and improves productivity since radiologists can more accurately review a greater number of patient studies when presented electronically alongside new digital modalities.Images can also be manipulated by radiologists, as needed, and the service enables remote diagnosis.

“Radiology rooms and film libraries occupy valuable space in healthcare facilities,” said Mark Rempe, vice president of Iron Mountain’s Health Information Services. “As the need for physical space becomes increasingly important for the healthcare industry, hospitals, clinics and outpatient centers would benefit by moving their x-rays off site.In addition to freeing up space, X-ray On Demand delivers DICOM images directly to PACS, and drives down costs by converting only the prior analog film that is needed, when it is needed.”

Iron Mountain is a leader in health information management providing products and services that bridge existing paper-based systems with electronic file solutions and helping healthcare providers transition cost-effectively to the Electronic Health Record (EHR).In addition to X-ray On Demand, Iron Mountain offers a complete line of healthcare information services including: Comprehensive Health Information Management (CHM) Program (a fully outsourced file room solution), Open Shelf Records Storage, and Secure Shredding. Iron Mountain also offers indexing services, dropfiling and interfiling, Release of Information (ROI) services, purging and medical record assembly.
