Fujifilm installs Synapse 7x cardiology PACS in Emory Healthcare Facilities

Fujifilm Healthcare Americas Corporation, a leading provider of enterprise imaging and informatics solutions, has installed Fujifilm’s Synapse® Cardiology PACS version 7 throughout Emory Healthcare facilities to store, process and analyze heart and vascular imaging. Emory Healthcare is the most comprehensive academic health system in Georgia.

Recognized for its robust server-side rendering capabilities and remote reading capabilities, Fujifilm’s Synapse Cardiology PACS enables care coordination, standardizes clinical workflows, and enhances clinical decision making through greater image and information access throughout all 11 Emory Healthcare hospitals.

“A valued customer and successful user of Fujifilm’s Synapse VNA, we are delighted that Emory Healthcare has expanded its collaboration with Fujifilm,” says Bill Lacy, Senior Vice President, Medical Informatics, Fujifilm Healthcare Americas Corporation. “With next generation cardiology PACS solutions, like Synapse 7x, Emory’s world-class cardiology team, which includes 23 Heart & Vascular clinics across north Georgia, are now well-poised to streamline workflow, better collaborate with referring doctors, and optimize patient outcomes.”

Synapse Cardiology PACS has prided itself in its extensive integration capabilities and seamlessly supports a hybrid approach to structured reporting. This enables integration with third party reporting systems including Epic’s Cupid cardiovascular information system module and Synapse Cardiology PACS structured reporting.

“The primary reason we chose Synapse is because it offers the ability for very quick image retrieval in varying environments and remote locations for enhanced productivity and care delivery, thanks to its server-side rendering architecture,” says Allison Grahovec, Director of IT for Heart and Vascular, Emory Healthcare. “We have confidence in the company’s technology and staff to deliver the kind of dedicated service and support a 24/7 specialty like cardiology needs.”
