Helps Extend Quality Healthcare in Remote, Underserved Areas
Jacksonville, Fl – Viztek announces two installations of its Web-based Opal-RAD PACS in major internationally recognized corporate health clinics in Southern Nigeria. Sold and installed in cooperation with Texas-based medical equipment dealer CIMS, the new fully digital installations also include Kodak’s Point of Care (POC) 140 CRs, film digitizers and Quantum X-rays. Together, this advanced equipment will significantly improve the detection of tuberculousis and the delivery of quality medical care in extremely remote geographic areas.
The combined Viztek-CIMS technologies represent an important step up in quality-of-care in this traditionally underserved region. Viztek solutions, which are quickly deployed, provide remote consulting physicians with access to images from better equipped corporate facillities, and as a result, quality patient care now extends into rural areas historically hampered by slower diagnoses.
“We are pleased with the recent growth of Viztek installations in Nigeria and are proud to contribute to the international growth of quality medical care. We also hope to continue our sales growth globally,” says Viztek, CEO Roger Davis. These new Viztek sites mark the second and third installation of company’s software in Nigeria during the past month.
