3D Imaging Reconstruction Services Will Allow Radiology Groups to Improve Patient Care
HENDERSONVILLE, Tn., April 17, 2012 – Radius, LLC is expanding its unique pay-per-study RIS/PACS model to include the option of on demand 3D imaging reconstruction. Radius has signed an agreement with Massachusetts General Physicians Organization (MGPO), an affiliate of Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), to provide three-dimensional (3D) imaging protocols and Tele3D Imaging Services from MGPO to deliver clinically-focused 3D services to Radius’ client hospitals and imaging centers throughout the country, enhancing the diagnostic and treatment solutions they can offer to patients.
MGH’s Tele3D Imaging Service will enable Radius’ clients to supplement or eliminate their costly 3D programs, in many cases, saving more than $250,000 a year in equipment, staff and operational efficiency. The 3D imaging service will allow Radiologists and Technologists to increase their productivity while keeping more of their focus on patient care. Additionally, there will be an opportunity for increased reimbursable revenue.
Gordon J. Harris, PhD, director of the MGH 3D Imaging Service and Professor of Radiology at Harvard Medical School, stated that he is “pleased that the 3D protocols developed and refined within our 3D Imaging Service will now be available to the wider medical community. In many ways 3D technology has transformed the field of radiology, and greatly enhanced the diagnostic and treatment planning value of advanced imaging, while reducing costs, and risk to patients. Our goal has been to make this expertise available to caregivers and patients far beyond our walls.”
“We are excited to make this unique offering available to all of our customers across the country, said Ken Nelson, CEO of Radius, LLC. “The Tele 3D service will create new efficiencies and open up additional revenue opportunities all while enhancing the quality of patient care.”
