Stentor, MedAssets link

Stentor has been selected by MedAssets Supply Chain Systems as an approved vendor to provide PACS to MedAssets member hospitals.
   
Concurrent with the agreement, Stentor will be able to sell its iSite PACS to MedAssets members through January 2010. Stentor said it also will offer web-based enterprise image distribution to MedAssets members who currently utilize PACS, but want to distribute diagnostic-quality images across their entire hospital and referring physician network.
