Real-time transfer of data to be rolled out across mobile fleet following trial

Visbion Image Cube has been installed on three mobile scanning units for Fairford Medical Group, with a view to being rolled out to the rest of its mobile diagnostic imaging facilities following a successful trial.

Fairford Medical provides affordable new or refurbished MRI, CT, ultrasound and x-ray medical diagnostic imaging equipment for mobile, relocatable or modular and static installation. The Visbion Image Cube managed mobile service will enable real-time transfer of scans and data between the mobile unit and the host hospital.

It ensures scans are transferred rapidly and securely to the hospital’s PACS, ready for immediate diagnosis. Live worklists are also enabled with changes to  appointments, for example, being updated in real-time. By using 3G/4G mobile networks, Visbion provides efficient remote support and management of the system. When the mobile unit moves location, Image Cube will automatically reconnect to the hospital network so that it is ready to scan immediately.

Fairford Medical operations manager Sally Glennerster said: “It has been a very positive experience working with Visbion to install Image Cube on our fleet and we are pleased to be able to offer this enhanced service, knowing that we have the full support that Visbion offers.”
