This acquisition enables Toshiba to accelerate the growth of its magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) business by leveraging Olea’s cutting-edge software technology for advanced post-processing and image analysis, as well as its broad relationships with key research institutions and customers.
Toshiba will also be able to provide multimodality solutions by integrating Olea’s post-processing software with Vitrea, a widely known enterprise and scanner-connected workstation by Vital Images Inc., another subsidiary of Toshiba, to improve collaboration among experts, consolidate and standardize workflows and enhance diagnostic confidence.
