CPRSImager
"Introduction: I needed a simple document imaging system. When I looked at the legal requirements of using the VistA system, I decided to not use VistA system as my core. Instead, I have devised a simple replacement system.
How it works: When CPRS Chart performs certain activities, it broadcasts messages of its action via a Windows messaging system. When a new note is selected for a patient, for example, a message is broadcast to all applications of this action. To create my system, I add brief code (~100 lines) that scans the note in CPRS for image links. If they are found, then I broad cast an additional message of an image to be displayed. I then created a separate application that listens for these messages and displays the correct image.
I will include here the code to make this work. Select the pages below for more information:
