Anonymiser

The service is designed for use as a standalone anonymised research store, or as a portal through which data is passed to be anonymised and forwarded to dedicated research stores, whilst keeping a log of the anonymisation record. It is applied to all DICOM files arriving on the server or HL7 messages containing a patient details section (PID Segment).

It can be configured in general or for a specific research trial, and will create anonymisation records automatically upon receiving data. It is independent of the order, or nature of the data, and  an anonymisation record can be predefined for trials where the patients and their required trial IDs are known.
