Allied Telesis Enhances Radiology Imaging Service Delivery with SwitchBlade x8112 Platform
Chicago, IL - November 25, 2012 - Allied Telesis, Inc., a global provider of secure IP/Ethernet networking solutions, announces the Radiology-Connected Cloud solution for Healthcare networking providers and radiology professionals. With the drive to e-Healthcare, the ability for medical professionals to store and access patient data centrally as well as remotely requires a highly scalable and resilient network infrastructure. The SwitchBlade x8100 family of core networking chassis provides the bandwidth and secure connectivity options to allow medical providers to store and retrieve medical records stored centrally or remotely in private healthcare clouds with the simple click of a button. Instantaneous access or secure sharing of patient records including radiology images such as X-rays, CT scans, ultrasounds, mammograms, MRIs and PET scans can now be accomplished simply with a high-performance networking solution from Allied Telesis.
"The SwitchBlade x8100, as the core backbone supervisor for a Radiology-Connected Cloud, fundamentally raises the bar in terms of medical record and image sharing and access," said Joe Gallo, senior solutions architect at Allied Telesis. "With the increase in the number of patients expected to rise significantly over the next several years, the pressure on the healthcare system requires a next-generation networking solution that improves how medical professionals access critical data to enable faster and more efficient diagnosis of patients' conditions." Typical patient data analysis, based on current practices, can take as long as several weeks before a patient is informed of the findings. With the SwitchBlade x8112 Radiology-Connected Cloud, image analysis can be reduced from weeks to a matter of minutes.
