IBM Corp. is collaborating with Bycast Inc. to establish an enterprise-wide storage system at Iowa Health System. The new system is based on IBM’s Grid Medical Archive Solution, a tool designed to allow cardiology, radiology and other digital images to be shared across multiple sites as well as provide long-term storage.
Iowa Health selected the solution to address its rapidly growing imaging and fixed content data challenges by enabling clinicians to gain round-the-clock access to medical data, as well as for PACS and other systems, to readily access medical images, scans and other documents.
