Personalization: The newly enhanced version of iRT is updated to allow user-enabled personalization, analytics, and notification modules.
“The key to better patient outcomes in oncology care requires solutions that simplify and shorten an incredibly complex workflow for providers, as well as personalize the care pathway for patients, in order to ensure more effective care for each individual,” said Dr. Ben Newton, general manager, Oncology at GE HealthCare. “GE HealthCare worked closely with clinicians globally to develop the iRT platform which streamlines the radiation therapy pathway by connecting disparate multi-vendor application systems, creating a vendor-agnostic ecosystem and harnessing the power of AI to potentially reduce the critical time between treatment planning and first treatment.”
Advancing AI and Digital Solutions for More Personalized Oncology Radiation Therapy
GE HealthCare recently announced the acquisition close of MIM Software and the addition of its imaging analytics and digital workflow offerings as a part of the company’s portfolio. MIM Software's clinical tools – paired with GE HealthCare's imaging solutions – bring improved flexibility, automation, and efficiency to providers. This includes the addition of MIM Software’s radiation oncology portfolio, which is designed to provide clinicians with complementary interoperable solutions that can help simplify complex planning and deliver faster treatment.
Additionally, the MIM acquisition enabled the expansion of GE HealthCare’s relationship with Elekta, a leader in precision radiation oncology. GE HealthCare’s MIM Software portfolio will enhance Elekta’s innovative treatment planning software which aids in the delivery of radiation therapy through enabling precision dose calculation. The collaboration is expected to harness MIM Software and Elekta’s respective strengths in regional markets to make solutions available globally.
This news complements GE HealthCare and Elekta’s existing global collaboration agreement, which enables the two companies to provide hospitals with a comprehensive offering across imaging and treatment for cancer patients requiring radiation therapy.
