About Project

In a typical hospital, a patient is prescribed a radiology test like an X-ray, CT scan, or MRI. The test is scheduled, performed, and reviewed all managed through a RIS-PACS software.


The platform is used by radiologists, technicians, reception staff, and doctors to handle the complete radiology workflow from billing and scheduling to scan execution and report approval.


Over time, however, the software became complex and cluttered. Routine tasks required too many clicks, multiple screens, and constant interpretation of dense information.


This slowed down workflows, increased the chances of human error, and made the software heavily dependent on training making a redesign necessary.

Our Approach

We analyzed how users interacted with the existing RIS-PACS system and identified gaps in workflow clarity and efficiency, where tasks required navigating multiple screens with excessive actions. We addressed this by restructuring workflows into a unified interface, simplifying interactions, and introducing AI-assisted features for faster reporting and decision-making.

We identified key issues that created friction in daily tasks, increasing effort and slowing down workflows.

Problem - 1

Too Many Actions with No Clear Priority

Each screen was filled with multiple actions, with no clear priority or structure. Users had to pause, scan through options, and interpret what each action meant before moving forward.


What should have been a quick decision became a moment of hesitation, slowing down even simple tasks.

Problem - 2

Lack of Context While Working

Switching between multiple screens caused users to lose track of their current task and progress. Each action required moving to a different view, breaking the natural flow of work.


With no single place to view and act on everything together, users had to mentally piece together information and remember where they were in the process.


This constant context switching increased effort, slowed down task completion, and made workflows feel disconnected and harder to manage.

Problem - 3

No Clear Way to Add Patients and See Reports

Adding new patients was not straightforward, as there was no clear or visible entry point in the interface. Users often had to search through multiple options to find where to perform this action.


This lack of clarity made a basic task feel confusing and inconsistent, especially for new users who were unfamiliar with the system.


As a result, a routine process took longer than expected, slowing down workflows and interrupting the overall experience.

Clear Action Hierarchy and Simplified Interface

Clear Action Hierarchy and Simplified Interface

We redesigned the interface to bring clarity to how actions are presented. Instead of showing everything at once, actions are now structured based on priority, helping users quickly understand what to do next.


Primary actions are more visible, while secondary actions are grouped to reduce clutter.


This removes the need to pause and interpret multiple options, making actions more immediate and tasks faster to complete.

Unified Workspace for Better Context

Unified Workspace for Better Context

We brought key information, actions, and workflows into a single, structured view, aligning the interface with how users naturally work.


Instead of switching between multiple screens, users can now access everything they need in one place, reducing interruptions and maintaining context.


This helps users stay focused, understand their progress, and complete tasks more smoothly.

Dedicated Entry Point for Adding Study Details

We introduced a clear and accessible “Add Study Details” button as a primary action, making it immediately visible within the interface.


Instead of searching through multiple options, users can now quickly identify where to begin and add study details without confusion.


This simplifies a common task, making the process more direct, consistent, and easier to learn, especially for new users.
