VIDEO: Talking Trends with Philips: Improving Operational Efficiency, Enhancing Patient Care Via the Cloud
Clinicians and referring physicians need fast, secure access to both patient data and their diagnostic or viewing tool set. But the cost barriers and the complexity of owning and maintaining healthcare information systems can compromise the quality of care.
To address this, Philips has partnered with AWS to develop Philips HealthSuite Imaging — a new radiology cloud service that provides on-demand access to advanced medical imaging software.
ITN recently visited with Madhuri Sebastian and Matthieu Ferrant to learn more about this service.
