Providing a unified healthcare analytics solution for the era of AI
This blog is part of a series that explores the recent announcement of the public preview of healthcare data solutions in Microsoft Fabric. Healthcare data solutions in Microsoft Fabric is a comprehensive, end-to-end analytics SaaS platform that allows you to ingest, store, and analyze healthcare data from a variety of sources, including electronic health records and picture archiving and communication systems. With this platform, you can unlock new insights and drive value from your healthcare data.
Building Apps on Healthcare Data Solutions for Power Platform
Healthcare Data Solutions for Power Platform is a cloud solution helping customers and partners build healthcare applications using low code/no code tools and a FHIR-aligned data model. The solution also provides template applications, a Dataverse Healthcare API, Virtual Health Data Tables, and a FHIRlink Power Platform connector. The solution is free for Power Platform customers and can be customized and extended using Dataverse tools and custom code.Hospital innovation with Computer Science students on Azure FHIR – GOSH DRIVE and UCL CS students
The DRIVE unit based at Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Foundation Trust (GOSH) is a world first and unique in the United Kingdom’s National Health Service (NHS). It is a major innovation hub for hospital systems and over the past two years since its creation, it has become a central London lab for experimental clinical systems development.Empowering multi-modal analytics with the medical imaging capability in Microsoft Fabric
This blog is part of a series that explores the recent announcement of the public preview of healthcare data solutions in Microsoft Fabric. The DICOM® (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) data ingestion capability within the healthcare data solutions in Microsoft Fabric enables the storage, management, and analysis of imaging metadata from various modalities, including X-rays, CT scans, and MRIs, directly within Microsoft Fabric. It fosters collaboration, R&D and AI innovation for healthcare and life science use cases. Our customers and partners can now integrate DICOM® imaging datasets with clinical data stored in FHIR® (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) format. By making imaging pixels and metadata accessible alongside clinical history and laboratory data, it enables clinicians and researchers to interpret imaging findings in the appropriate clinical context. This leads to enhanced diagnostic accuracy, informative clinical decision-making, and ultimately, improved patient outcomes.FHIR Data Visualization
The main goal of the project was to speed up the auditing cycle in healthcare. The auditing cycle is a process used by health professionals to improve patient care in a systemic way through analyzing and evaluating data. A big part of the auditing cycle is to collect data, whether from computerized or physical records, and visualizing data for analytical purposes which can be slow depending on the region. The solution is to provide an intuitive dashboard for relevant parties to access information from the FHIR database with ease, allowing users possessing minimal technical skills to utilize the analytic features even during the early stages of adopting the program.FHIRlink Connector Support for EPIC® on FHIR®
The Health and Life Sciences Data Platform team recently released an update to the FHIRlink connector introducing support for EPIC® on FHIR® connectivity. This is our initial release of connectivity for EPIC® on FHIR® application registrations configured with an application audience of Patient or Clinicians/Administrative Users.FHIRlink Power Platform connector Public Preview Release
Microsoft FHIRlink creates a direct connection between healthcare apps built on Microsoft Azure services and FHIR’s servers, bypassing the need to duplicate data from Microsoft Dataverse. FHIRlink reduces the complexity and cost of building low code/no code applications on Power Platform and Azure because developers can build their apps directly against the FHIR services rather than having to duplicate data between systems. Connect Power Automate Flows, Power Platform Canvas Apps, and Azure Logic Apps to various FHIR services and perform create, retrieve, update and delete operations directly on FHIR resources.
