MIRTH Connect is an open source, cross-platform, HL7 interface engine that allows HL7 messages to be sent bi-directionally between systems and applications over multiple transports. MIRTH Connect uses a channel-based architecture to filter, transform, and route messages based on user-defined rules.
As of v11.0 P003, CARESTREAM PACS integrates with MIRTH Connect Version 1.8.1.4211. MIRTH Connect is used to establish a dynamic HL7 interface beyond the existing HL7 capabilities implemented in IS Link. CARESTREAM PACS uses the MIRTH Connect interface to implement non-standard interfaces to PACS.
