It’s challenging to do more with less, especially when managing such complex and critical aspects of the radiology department.

Workflow must support volumes, staffing, and growth across the enterprise. Patients need quality, standardized care that’s efficiently and consistently delivered. Staff requires support and resources to maximize performance and retention. It’s time you had the operational tools and actionable insights you need to provide high-quality, efficient patient care.

Connected staff

Extend expertise anywhere it’s needed, from onboarding to ongoing.

Make the most of the resources you have when you can use remote connectivity for training and real-time collaboration or knowledge sharing. Timely assistance and access to centralized expertise helps to optimize resource allocation and avoid quality issues, rework, and other delays in your workflow.
Drive efficiency

Make the most of the resources you have

Imaging 360 Remote helps you counter radiology resource scarcity and cost pressures across multiple sites. Through streamlined training and remote knowledge sharing, key individuals like regional experts, can offer real-time guidance to less experienced staff without costly travel or time delays.
Empower staff

Build staff competence and confidence

When you give your team the ability to remotely access real-time live support, they can easily call for guidance should they encounter non-routine or advanced exams. This can help minimize rescans and callbacks across the enterprise, while also building staff skills.

You can further boost competence with remote protocol editing.* When the team is assured protocols are standardized across the enterprise, they can work more confidently and enjoy more consistent results.

Improve exam workflows

Connect with an expert whenever it’s needed

Not all technologists are equally skilled with all types of equipment. You can keep operations running smoothly when you provide detailed guidance during MRI and CT procedures through remote scan assistance (including initiating the MR scan remotely**), training, voice and chat communications options.

Our connectivity solution is compatible with GE HealthCare equipment and has multi-vendor compatibility with major manufacturers***. The cloud-based platform provides secure remote access and has low bandwidth requirements.
