Cloud-based PACS NOBORI

Cloud-based PACS NOBORI
Safely manage medical information, image data, etc.

"NOBORI" is a new cloud service that uses IT technology to safely store medical images and other medical information. Large volumes of medical information, including study images, are safely managed in a data center outside the medical institution. The variety of our software functions commonly unified under the term PACS can be accessed, shared, and used whenever necessary via cloud environment.

A cloud service that works for everyone: hospitals/medical institutions, doctors/medical staff, patients/consumers.

Benefits for hospitals and medical institutions

Data is safely stored in two separate data centers, duplicated in each of the locations. The service cost is limited to the monthly usage fee, so no initial investment is required.

Benefits for doctors and medical staff

You can access the information you need any time and operate it fast and smoothly without realizing it is stored in the cloud. The basic applications are included in the basic contract, so you can use the functions you need without worrying about the number of licenses.

Benefits for patients and consumers

For reliable protection of personal medical data and privacy information, data undergoes encryption and secret sharing (data division), and then transmitted and stored in a safe manner in the wide-area network.

Main features / Service image

The "NOBORI" system achieves robust security and complies with the guidelines of the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare. The data from hospitals and medical institutions is safely stored within two geographically separate data centers in eastern Japan and western Japan that have acquired PAS99, ISO9001, ISO14001, ISO2000Q, and ISO27001, as well as FISC-compliant certifications, and have been monitored 24/365 with a cutting-edge security system empowered by manned reception, biometric authentication and card access control.
With the "NOBORI" service, there is no need to install a large server machine in the hospital or medical institution. Only a compact dedicated appliance server called "NOBORI-CUBE" is required.
By simply adjusting the type and number of "NOBORI-CUBE" you can build the systems of various scales, from large hospitals to clinics.

Main features / Service image

In-hospital server is not required

The system is built on top of the dedicated appliance "NOBORI-CUBE". Adjust the number of CUBEs to fit the scale of the hospital. The SSD-based storage provides excellent fault tolerance.

Speedy image access

The “Smart-Retrieve” function integrated with the HIS makes it possible to prefetch data from data center in advance. Prior study images also can be accessed without stress.

Safe and secure data management

Data is duplicated at two separate data centers in eastern and western Japan. Data security is ensured by encryption and secret sharing methods.

“Zero” initial investment

NOBORI-CUBE is a rental equipment that incurs zero initial investment. The future expansion is available by simply changing the contract plan, with no need to replace the server every few years.

Automatic failure detection

System operation status at each institution has been constantly monitored. Once a failure is detected, the data center notifies the NOBORI support center that resolves the issue.

Cooperation between institutions

It is also possible to share information across institutions. You can share patient data and case data between related facilities, remotely interpret images, and access information via mobile.
