PACS technology developer AccelaRad said it has won a contract with Utah-based Intermountain Healthcare.
AccelaRad will equip Intermountain's network of 22 hospitals and 185 physician clinics with its software, which will allow Intermountain physicians to request, view, and share medical images from a referring facility before a patient is even admitted, according to the firm.
AccelaRad's cloud-based platform will also eliminate the health system's process of managing medical images on CDs and film, which will help prevent physicians from ordering duplicate tests as a result of damaged or lost images, the company said.
