Liverpool Heart and Chest gets syngo.via

On May 23, 2012

At Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital are Siemens syngo business manager UK and Ireland Ronan Kirby, installed base account manager Helen Moffatt, regional sales manager John Brady, consultant radiologists Dr S Binukrishnan and Dr C McCann, superintendent radiographer CT Colin Monaghan, radiology manager Janette Rekatas and senior radiographer Cary Waine.

Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital has become the 50th hospital in the UK to install syngo.via from Siemens Healthcare.

The advanced client-server application is initially being used with a newly-installed Somatom Definition Flash CT for the swift collation, pre-processing and interpretation of clinical images. It has already allowed the hospital to reduce queues for workstations and it is hoped will eventually improve overall departmental workflow. In due course it will be linked to MRI image reporting.
