Exa Gateway (the platform for the analysis of medical pictures)

2020: The announcement of Exa Gateway - the platform for the analysis of medical pictures

In the middle of September, 2020 the American division of Konica Minolta Healthcare started the platform of the remote analysis of medical images under the name Exa Gateway. A new system is designed to integrate radiological departments of hospitals and suppliers of remote medical services.

Many organizations which are engaged in medical visualization lack personnel for processing of the amount of data which sharply increased after a pandemic. Therefore hospitals look for services for rendering remote analytical services to avoid failures in assistance. It is expected that in the future use of a teleradiology and services of the remote analysis of medical images will be even more highly demanded.

Exa Gateway allows radiologists to receive far off medical images on workstations or such devices as tablets and smartphones. Using the existing system PACS, Exa Gateway minimizes costs, optimizes connection and allows radiologists to use the PACS tools and preview players with which they are already familiar. Thus Exa Gateway does not render additional load of IT personnel and does not require new resources.

Radiological departments of hospitals can order teleradiological services depending on a flow of patients. At the same time thanks to remote service they can both cope with overloads, and to address narrow specialists for interpretation of images in complex cases. As this solution is included into an Exa platform arsenal, radiologists can use the Exa Zero Footprint Viewer program with a full range of diagnostic tools and different opportunities of viewing. At the same time all work with images is performed on the server, but not at the workstation.^[1]
