GE HealthCare (GEHC) and Connecticut-based Hartford HealthCare have extended their "Care Alliance" collaboration through 2030.
Under the collaboration, Hartford HealthCare will upgrade its imaging technology using a phased approach for the acquisition, deployment, and redeployment of CT, PET/CT, MRI, x-ray, nuclear medicine, mammography, ultrasound, and OEC 3D surgical imaging C-arm systems, according to GEHC. Many of the new systems in the collaborative effort will include tested AI and machine-learning software, and patient monitoring, anesthesia, maternal infant care, and diagnostic cardiology technologies are also included.
GEHC technicians will be available in-house to repair and complete maintenance on all equipment within the scope of the collaboration. Some existing MRI, CT, PET/CT, and x-ray systems will also be refreshed, GEHC said.
