LINKÖPING, Sweden, June 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- International
medical imaging IT and cybersecurity company
Sectra (STO: SECT B) has signed a ten-year enterprise
imaging contract with St. Claraspital in Basel, Switzerland. In this initial step
toward a unified strategy for all its imaging needs, St.
Claraspital will store medical images and multimedia from all
medical specialties in an enterprise imaging solution and use the
radiology module for image review. This will reduce IT complexity,
increase reading and reporting efficiency, and enable efficient
collaboration across disciplines and clinics.
St. Claraspital in Basel is a
privately run acute care hospital in northwest
Switzerland.
"Sectra's solution fits our enterprise imaging strategy, as it
can be expanded to include other specialties over time. Its high
system availability, integrated reporting functionality and AI
workflow integrations were also important criteria in our selection
of an imaging vendor. It will give our specialists a fast overview
of all analyses, especially those based on imaging diagnostics,
from all our medical disciplines and thus improve patient
treatment," says Dominique Schmid,
Head of ITM and Member of the Executive Board at St.
Claraspital.
The enterprise imaging solution has a vendor neutral archive
(VNA) at its core, providing clinicians at St. Claraspital with a
single point of access to all current and previous images, video,
and data. This reduces the need to switch between applications and
enables efficient cross-departmental collaboration and integrated
diagnostic workflows.
The contract was signed in May
2020 and also includes structured reporting and tools for
multidisciplinary team meetings.
Sectra's enterprise imaging solution provides a unified strategy
for all imaging needs while lowering operational costs. The
scalable and modular solution, with a VNA at its core, allows
healthcare providers to grow from ology to ology and from
enterprise to enterprise. Read more about Sectra's enterprise
