Agfa HealthCare has selected Dell to host its cloud clinical archive portfolio, including the company's Imaging Clinical Information System (ICIS) platform.
By extending its existing managed services platform with availability of ICIS in the cloud -- including its Impax Data Center and Xero image viewer -- Agfa will offer simplified image archiving, management, and viewing that support healthcare facilities' need to image-enable the electronic medical record, according to the firm.
As part of the agreement, Agfa will also offer Dell's Cloud Clinical Archive, which provides access to archived data in the event of a natural disaster or system downtime, as well as Dell's Cloud Clinical Recovery application, designed to provide business continuity and disaster recovery for organizations with an existing onsite archive, Agfa said.
