WAUKESHA, WI — A Waukesha clinic says it's the first one in Wisconsin to come up with a way to instantly share medical imaging results with mobile devices while remaining in compliance with state privacy laws.
Moreland OB-GYN & Associates, a women’s healthcare organization serving Waukesha County and the surrounding commuities, announced today that it is the first provider in Wisconsin to implement Tricefy Medical Imaging Technology - a web-based management platform that instantly sends information from medical imaging equipment to any mobile device including phones and tablets.
Moreland OB-GYN & Associates told Waukesha Patch that it's the fastest and most efficient sharing and collaboration platform for ultrasound studies. It allows physicians to communicate with colleagues, instantly obtain second opinions, and easily share images with patients.

The new technology allows sonographers to text or email expectant mothers and fathers a secure link to their baby’s 3D ultrasound images or 4D videos. The images can then be instantly shared with family members or on social media.
“It's amazing you can get images the same day, real-time, and be able to share with people who may not be able to be there, like a husband who is traveling for work," Lea Dawson said.
Tricefy will provide Moreland OB-GYN & Associates’ providers with convenient, remote access to images and reports, and a highly secured environment to upload, store and view on any PC, Mac, smartphone or tablet.
Dr. James Leonhardt with Moreland OB-GYN & Associates said: “By simply entering a phone number or email address in our system, we are able to safely share images without releasing any private information.”
