Calgary Scientific partners with Dell, the world's leading healthcare IT services provider

Strategic partnership adds Calgary Scientific's ResolutionMD™ software and PureWeb® Platform to Dell's UCA portfolio

Calgary, AB - November 23, 2011 - Calgary Scientific Inc., a leading innovator in advanced visualization solutions and web, mobile and collaboration-enabling platforms, has strategically partnered with Dell to enhance mobility and add advanced web-enabled visualization to Dell’s already robust Unified Clinical Archive solution.

The pairing will provide physicians with real-time, high-performance access to diagnostic images and patient information from wherever they may be. This highly secure and market-leading solution allows the physician to access the information they need to make diagnostic decisions from anywhere, while using tools they know and trust. And because no patient data is ever physically copied or transferred to a mobile device, it remains secure in the data center.

Dell’s vendor-neutral secure cloud archive combined with existing hospital IT infrastructure and  desktop, laptop and mobile computing devices can significantly increase productivity while reducing costs by eliminating redundant storage. The addition of Calgary Scientific’s FDA-cleared ResolutionMD software, powered by PureWeb®, enhances Dell’s UCA solution by giving physicians the ability to:

  • Access 2D, MIP/MPR or 3D images on any web-based platform without sacrificing quality or  performance, and
  • Consult with other specialists by sharing images in real time through multi-point collaboration.

“Having critical information available where and when it is needed will allow caregivers to be more efficient and improve the quality of care they provide,” said James Coffin, Ph.D., vice president and general manager of Dell Healthcare and Life Sciences. “The combination of Dell’s cloud-based image archive with ResolutionMD’s secure mobile diagnostic application will support critical decision-making with advance visualization while giving physicians the flexibility they need.”  

 

“Dell and Calgary Scientific share a vision for an improved healthcare system that sees secure, real-time access to critical patient information increasing, and costs to the system decreasing,” said Pierre Lemire, Calgary Scientific’s President & Chief Technology Officer. “With the two organizations now strategically partnered, Calgary Scientific and Dell can offer a complete solution with unparalleled performance, and look to revolutionize many aspects of the healthcare delivery system going forward into the future.”
