AMSTERDAM and CHICAGO, Nov. 27,
2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Royal Philips (NYSE: PHG; AEX:
PHIA) today announced the commercial availability of its
high-performance IntelliSpace Universal Data Manager, a scalable,
secure, interoperable data management solution that supports
healthcare enterprises in organizing large data sets, including
millions of images and other data from multiple sources, and
quickly delivering them to virtually any clinician throughout their
health network. The IntelliSpace Universal Data Manager complements
the Philips IntelliSpace healthcare informatics portfolio,
including the IntelliSpace PACS radiology workflow management
applications and IntelliSpace Portal advanced visualization and
quantification platform.
Today's conventional medical image archive solutions focus on
multi-vendor compatibility but they often times compromise on
performance and scalability. Philips' new interoperable
IntelliSpace Universal Data Manager is different and allows for
integration and universal management and scalability to meet
healthcare providers current and future needs, helping them to
deliver better, more holistic patient care without compromising on
system performance.
The IntelliSpace Universal Data Manager delivers enhanced image
lifecycle support, configurable storage options and full
scalability, while also meeting the performance demands of larger
radiology departments. Many healthcare organizations have
challenges managing the millions of images and other data that are
often stored in decentralized systems and infrastructures from
multiple vendors across many clinical departments and locations.
These images range from X-ray, CT and MR-scans made by their
radiology, cardiology and oncology departments to the digital
photos taken by dermatology and plastic surgery as part of a
consultation. With the IntelliSpace Universal Data Manager,
radiologists and clinicians can access relevant multi-discipline
medical images for a more complete and integrated view of their
patients' medical conditions over time. The data management
solution works with multi-vendor imaging modalities and storage
systems and supports medical imaging standards to leverage existing
investments.
"Chief Information Officers at healthcare enterprises face
complex IT landscapes and are seeking more effective data
management strategies," said Yair Briman, Senior Vice President and
General Manager of Healthcare IT for Philips. "Philips is committed
to offering sophisticated solutions that are universal,
interoperable, and help organizations with the challenge of
integrating the proliferation of ordered and non-ordered images,
reigning in spiraling operational costs and providing easy access
to patient records."
The Universal Data Manager will leverage the capabilities of
Philips HealthSuite with the aim to further expand its features and
possibilities for enterprise-wide, and between hospital
enterprises, medical image accessibility.
Philips IntelliSpace is an integrated portfolio of professional
healthcare informatics solutions providing clinical workflow,
decision support and patient management capabilities. The
IntelliSpace Universal Data Manager works seamlessly with
IntelliSpace PACS and IntelliSpace Portal to help deliver
diagnostic and treatment confidence in radiology, cardiology,
oncology, neurology and other clinical domains.
The new technology will be showcased at booth #6735 at the RSNA
Annual Meeting, taking place Nov. 27
– Dec. 2, in Chicago, IL. For more information on Philips
