The leading provider of healthcare diagnostic solutions in Africa has selected an award-winning enterprise imaging platform as the first scalable and integrated enterprise image management to be deployed across the continent.
The new platform will be used for enterprise-level medical image management, and will include workflow management, mobile image capture, reporting, and referral functionality. The platform provides a solution for the growing problem of healthcare delivery in Africa, a continent with a critical shortage of radiologists. The solution will include the centralization of medical imaging management, and communication of image data across the continent.
IntriHEALTH (Fourways, Johannesburg, South Africa) selected Mach7 Technologies’ (South Burlington, VT, USA) Enterprise Imaging Platform (EIP) based on requirements such as privacy, security, storage, and image availability. IntriHEALTH provides end-to-end solutions for long-term clinical exam data storage across imaging platforms.
The Mach7 EIP can be used in various locations from remote imaging centers to academic hospitals. The scalable platform can be used for image capture in the field, access and sharing of patient imaging data from any geographic location, and features a simplified Graphical User Interface (GUI).
Mike Simpson, CEO of IntriHEALTH, said, “Mach7 provides superior technology to solve the critical needs of our customers and patients in Africa. Advancing enterprise imaging by leveraging best-of-breed technology across a clinical ecosystem is gaining rapid adoption among providers across Africa. Our integration and implementation experience with Mach7 has been both swift and seamless, a testament to the technology and support teams at Mach7.”
