It has an established strength in primary imaging areas of digital radiography, ultrasound, healthcare IT and services. Primary imaging accounts for up to 70 percent of all images acquired, and is relied upon for initial diagnosis and to assess the need for advanced imaging. With today’s focus on value-based care, healthcare needs primary imaging solutions to provide economic value, clinical confidence and worry free operation, the vendor said.
