Siemens Medical Solutions and the National Jewish Medical and Research Center in Denver have formed a strategic alliance to improve and develop imaging and diagnostic technologies aimed at advancing personalized medicine.
The research will focus on genomics, proteomics, and integrated research and clinical care, according to the Malvern, PA-based vendor. The institution will incorporate Siemens technology to help diagnose respiratory, cardiac, and rheumatologic diseases.
Much of the patient care and planned collaborative research will take place at the center's new Institute for Advanced Biomedical Imaging, Siemens said. The institute is scheduled to open this spring and will house two Siemens CT systems and one PET/CT scanner. An integrated RIS/PACS network will also be installed.
