Large US breast screening provider chooses imaging solution from Sectra

Solis Women’s Health, a leading provider of breast screening and diagnostic services in Texas, has announced the selection of Sectra Breast Imaging PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) for its breast imaging centers.

Solis Women’s Health owns six breast centers in the Dallas-Ft. Worth Metroplex and is focusing on the acquisition and operation of breast screening and diagnostic centers. Sectra will deploy its Breast Imaging PACS and its partner Eclipsys’ RIS (Radiology Information System). The fully integrated solution will enable paperless and film-free workflow at each of its delivery sites and also facilitate image access and information management on a national level.

“To realize the full potential of digital mammography within the context of our business strategy requires that we maintain maximum operational flexibility across a rapidly growing network of centers,” said Brad Hummel, CEO of Solis Women’s Health. “Sectra provides us that flexibility with a PACS/RIS solution that is both robust and scalable. Sectra’s long history of innovation and service excellence gives us the additional assurance that the company will be a good partner for Solis as it grows into an exciting future.”

Sectra’s breast imaging system provides an extremely fast local environment for each delivery site, with the added capability to allow easy distribution of mammograms. Such characteristics are truly beneficial for an operation like Solis Women’s Health.

“Solis Women’s Health represents the model of the future for screening mammography in a distributed environment,” said Dr. John Goble, President of Sectra in North America. “To work closely with Solis in a consolidated effort is a unique opportunity to achieve new PACS and IT innovations facilitating breast screening and diagnostic services on an enterprise level across a national network.”
