Audit Trail and Node Authentication (ATNA) - Radiology Option

The ATNA Radiology profile specifies basic security measures that can help protect the confidentiality of patient information as part of an institution's overall security policies and procedures. ATNA provides institutions with a mechanism to consolidate audit trail events on user activity across several imaging and information systems throughout the enterprise systems interconnected in a secure manner.
