The Amazon HealthLake Imaging platform will enable Philips HealthSuite Imaging to increase scale and offer fast time to the first image. Furthermore, it will enable images to be reused for machine learning (ML) and research while also reducing medical imaging costs.
Launching the company’s imaging solution of AWS will help optimise image access speeds and improve data orchestration for radiologists and clinicians across the imaging workflow ranging from diagnosis to therapy selection, treatment and follow-up.
The shift to the cloud will also allow clinicians to access the latest innovations from remote locations and eliminate costs related to on-premises hardware or data centres to host image-management platforms.
