Mirada Medical Ltd has announced that its XD3 Advanced image review and analysis software is being deployed by Alliance Medical in partnership with 30 National Health Service (NHS) hospital positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) departments nationwide.

Overweight patients are more difficult to image using ultrasound because greater amounts of tissue weaken sound waves as they pass into the body, which hinders the ability to achieve high-resolution images. Carestream’s Touch Prime and Touch Prime XE Ultrasound Systems can provide deep penetration of the abdomen and other areas, which is especially important for large or obese patients. These newly designed systems also offer more uniform resolution over the entire depth of the imaged area.

Intelerad Medical Systems announced the release of their Technologist Portal. Integrated directly into IntelePACS (picture archiving and communication system) and InteleOne XE, the solution facilitates case assignment to technologists and allows them to add the information required to fill orders.

Logicalis Healthcare Solutions and strategic partner Ascendian Healthcare announced the initiation of a campaign to help healthcare organizations develop an effective enterprise imaging strategy. Efforts include a new eBook co-authored by the two companies and participation in a joint eHealth Radio Network Interview.

At this year's Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) annual meeting, Gamma Medica Inc. invites congress attendees to experience LumaGEM, the latest in molecular breast imaging (MBI).

In 2014, InteleOne’s cross-enterprise workflow allowed two NHS trusts to merge without either of them having to replace legacy systems or migrate data. The result has seen radiology departments from multiple hospitals unified, leading to increases in both quality and productivity.

 

About University Hospitals of North Midlands


There is a growing need to exchange and share imaging studies with outside entities. Hospitals that have foregone the traditional merger and acquisition route to become affiliates, for example, have a need to share both individual patient and population health data, though their modalities for exchange and viewing may be very different. Patient transfers between facilities, specialty and professional consultations and even telehealth opportunities have created a new way of thinking about the delivery of images between two related, yet independent points of care.
