What is It?

The Virtual Hospital SIIMulator (VHS) is a web-based, sandbox training environment where learners will experience and master the complexities of imaging informatics by simulating real-world clinical workflows using interactive tools and real-time feedback.

Is VHS Right For Your Organization? If you're leading a team of informatics novices, healthcare IT professionals, students, clinicians, technicians, or vendor groups who could benefit from hands-on training in a safe environment, VHS is an ideal solution for you.

Features & Benefits

The Virtual Hospital SIIMulator (VHS) has been completely redesigned and redeveloped using a cloud-native stack. It offers longer user access, seamless auto-scaling, a streamlined and intuitive web interface, and automated cleanup routines, and is designed to support ongoing expansion. Expanded capabilities of the VHS include: 

  • Scalable: Auto-adjusts to usage demands, suitable for both individual learners and organizations. 
  • Cost-efficient: Reduces long-term operating costs compared to manual, legacy systems. 
  • Empowering: Gives learners practical, hands-on, error-driven learning experiences in a safe environment. 

Learning Using Curated Data

Learning is based on data curated from hundreds of synthetic images. The VHS showcases both mainstream and edge cases with more than 20 guided exercises already developed across DICOM®, HL7® v2, and HL7 FHIR®.
