The Enterprise Imaging for Radiology suite for The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust also includes the XERO viewer, which provides secure web-based access to DICOM and non-DICOM imaging data from different departments and multiple sources, in one view, to authorized users inside and outside of the hospitals who need it. This zero-download viewer reduces IT complexity while facilitating clinical collaboration and mobility.

The new contract further includes Agfa HealthCare's Business Intelligence application, which enables the Trust to access key operational information and to provide the mandatory management reports required by the government. Ad hoc reports will support the Trust in decision-making on best practices and efforts to increase efficiency, amongst others.

Enhanced collaboration and productivity

“Enterprise Imaging for Radiology fits in very well with our strategy, and will allow us to enhance collaboration between our sites,” comments Debbie Jones, Support Service Care Group Director of The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust. “Multi-disciplinary team meetings will be more productive, effective and inclusive, and clinicians will be able to join in remotely. Enterprise Imaging for Radiology is an excellent solution for us as a multi-site trust.”

“We are very pleased to be able to extend our relationship with the Trust, supporting them with a solution that enables the improvement of the patient experience and the delivery of clinical care, while allowing significant efficiency gains,” says Grant Witheridge, Managing Director UK & Ireland, Agfa HealthCare. “Enterprise Imaging for Radiology supports image sharing and consolidates images from a broad range of ‘ologies’, and is scaleable to support the Trust’s growing needs, now and in the future.”
