Twenty public health facilities in Jujuy now provide digitized access to medical imaging exams through the province’s Medical Imaging Portal, according to a recent announcement by the Ministry of Health of Jujuy. The portal includes results from CT scans, MRIs, X-rays (including panoramic and serial), ultrasounds, and mammograms conducted at hospitals in both urban and rural areas, as well as Nodo Alberdi and CEPAM.

This development is part of the second phase of the province’s Strategic Health Plan and aligns with efforts to modernize government services. The centralized system for medical images, known as SUPERPACS, has been managed by the Ministry’s Information Technology Unit since March. Its initial phase focused on integrating hospitals across the capital and interior regions to improve access to digital diagnostic results.

Since its launch in March 2025, more than 195,000 digital images have been processed using this system at various locations including Hospital Pablo Soria, Hospital San Roque, Hospital Materno Infantil, and others across the province.

The data storage server for SUPERPACS is physically located in the provincial Data Center. This setup aims to ensure security, constant availability, and backup for healthcare information.

Patients can access their digital images using a QR code provided after their exam at participating hospitals or centers. “Once a person undergoes the required study, they are given a printed QR code at the hospital, Nodo Alberdi or CEPAM that allows them to access their digitized image by scanning it with their mobile phone; they can also receive the study via WhatsApp or email,” said Daniel Garabito, head of the Information Technology Unit at the Ministry of Health.

Garabito added that patients wishing to review their processed image history must register with their personal details at https://visorms.msaludjujuy.gov.ar/patientportal/ before logging in as users.

The Medical Imaging Portal reduces the need for patients to travel back to health facilities for results or duplicate tests. It streamlines time management and resource use—such as paper—which can be lost or damaged. Additionally, medical professionals gain remote access to patient histories from any participating facility, aiding clinical decision-making.
