Vanderbilt University Medical Center Selects Accelarad’s SeeMyRadiology.com Service
Atlanta, GA, March 24, 2010—SeeMyRadiology.com, Accelarad’s new online medical image cloud computing service, announced its launch with Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC), bringing new medical image exchange technology to VUMC, a leader in the Southeast’s medical education, research and patient care.
VUMC’s orthopedic surgeons can exchange medical images in real-time via secure web access or via smartphones and other mobile devices for instant delivery and assessment of patient medical images, streamlining the entire medical image exchange process.
This service also brings distinct new advantages to medical image exchange. Unlike other image sharing applications, which only work within the confines of a specific hospital’s PACS (picture archiving and communication system) or via laborious VPN connections, SeeMyRadiology.com enables any hospital or provider with a computer and Internet to exchange medical images in an online community, all while ensuring high levels of data security and patient confidentially.
“Accelarad’s new service – SeeMyRadiology.com – is altering traditional medical image exchange and we are thrilled that VUMC, the only Level One Trauma Center in middle Tennessee, will use this service for its orthopedic trauma surgeons who need data during transfers immediately,” says Accelarad’s CEO Willie Tillery. “We anticipate great new efficiency for VUMC and welcome it to the SeeMyRadiology.com family.”
