Royal Philips, the parent company of Philips Healthcare, and West Physics are collaborating to create a CT radiation dose management program designed to help healthcare systems comply with new requirements from accrediting and regulatory bodies.
Philips will offer its DoseWise Portal to West Physics and its clients to help establish programs for managing CT protocol optimization, optimize CT equipment through protocol management and benchmarking, and apply data-driven analytics to assist with regulatory standard compliance, among other functions. DoseWise Portal is a multivendor and multimodality software application for radiation data collection, management, and analysis.
The combination of West Physics' services and Philips' DoseWise Portal will be available in three levels of support for health systems of all sizes.
