Second award for Barco

The company continues to make an exceptional contribution, and in 2017 achieved the highest score for the performance data metrics.
"Barco is as committed as we are to developing innovations that enhance the workflow of healthcare providers and help them to constantly improve the delivery of patient care," says James Jay, president imaging IT solutions at Agfa HealthCare.
Qaelum shows on-going commitment
This is the second year that Agfa HealthCare has presented the Most Committed Supplier award. Qaelum - whose DOSETM solution* enables patient radiation dose monitoring, analysis and improvement in imaging - was recognized by Agfa HealthCare's teams as providing commitment that goes "above and beyond" expectations. Qaelum is very responsive to requests from Agfa HealthCare, and has appointed dedicated people to support the company. Finally, Qaelum and Agfa HealthCare have worked together to tune the business model to meet the needs of Agfa HealthCare's customer hospitals, in order to deliver the most value.
"With Qaelum's exceptional commitment, we successfully work together on solutions that allow medical imaging departments worldwide to meet ALARA-compliant (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) X-ray imaging protocols, as well as optimized workflows and quality assurance," says Willy Rose, Head of Marketing IT Europe, Agfa HealthCare.
