  • Radiology: This Is Enterprise Imaging

    Momentum. You feel it when you’ve got it. And when it lags, you’re pushing harder to regain your stride. In radiology, maintaining momentum is core to keeping radiologists, workflow, decision-making and patient care moving forward. An enterprise imaging solution is the orchestrator that’s making it happen.

    Ophthalmology: This Is Enterprise Imaging

    Enterprise Imaging has a new vision for eye care: Utilizing a single platform to streamline image viewing, analysis and storage and linking ophthalmology with other ‘ologies across the healthcare system. That vision is now a clinically proven reality as one platform unites eye care with other imaging exams across a large, U.S.-based healthcare system. Ophthalmologists and optometrists praise the solution for proving its value in eye disease diagnostics, care planning and patient outcomes—and now other healthcare systems can take advantage of it too.

    Cloud: This Is Enterprise Imaging

    Medical images have long lived on legacy spinning disk. But healthcare systems are now leaving behind those on-prem, awkward boxes that require too much real estate, IT support and expense. Cloud is the choice to support enterprise imaging. If it feels like healthcare cloud is everywhere, you’re right. And here’s what you need to know to do cloud right.

  • This Is Enterprise Imaging

    First there was PACS: picture archiving and communications systems. Over the last decade, as managing medical imaging has expanded far beyond radiology, enterprise imaging was born. But what is enterprise imaging in its best form?

  • The Path to Digital Pathology: IT-enabling Image and Report Access across the Enterprise

    A vision starts with a need, quickly followed by a question—how can we accomplish it? At Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) in New York, the vision to initiate digital pathology coupled with fully integrating radiology and digital pathology images in one enterprise imaging (EI) system started seven years ago. They went live in February—the first U.S. installation of Sectra’s Digital Pathology Solution at the No. 1 orthopedic hospital in the country, 10 years running.

Digital Pathology Pilot Predicts Prosperity: Pondering Pathology’s Pivot

When it comes to digital medicine, digital pathology is very late to the game. But its time is coming. And the benefits could be many: Bolstering the capabilities, efficiency and reach of individual pathologists, cutting patient wait times, streamlining multidisciplinary team meetings (MDTs) and offering more data-rich decision-making. It could even obviate a shortage of pathologists. Where does it fit into your strategic plan?
