The contract signed by the hospital with Sectra provides enterprise imaging as a subscription (Sectra One).

This allows for system scalability as the hospital’s volumes increase and aids expansion into other specialties.

Sectra Canada president Nader Soltani said: “Sectra’s solution can support NYGH with future growth and make it possible for them to expand and benefit from integrated diagnostics and emerging technology, such as AI or digital pathology.”

Sectra’s solution will enable NYGH to view images from any modality and get access to a native diagnostic toolset, everything from one platform.

Additionally, the solution will integrate with the hospital’s EMR and patient portals. It also minimises operational costs and provides a unified strategy for all imaging needs.
