PACSHealth and SWEDUS form Partnership to Market Radiation Monitoring Software

PACSHealth joined SWEDUS, LLC, a U.S. based unit of Sapheneia, to form PHS Technologies Group (PHSTG). The new company is the developer and marketer of DoseMonitor, software that monitors the calculated cumulative radiation dose received during ionizing radiation procedures. DoseMonitor answers the call for radiation dose tracking by regulatory agencies following reported cases of overexposure to radiation from diagnostic imaging procedures.

Using mathematical algorithms and the standardized dose values of diagnostic imaging equipment, DoseMonitor calculates a patient's historical radiation exposure and provides a customer-defined "red/yellow/green” type alerts. In addition, by using dose values from imaging equipment, devices and procedures that no longer meet safe dosage specifications can be identified.

DoseMonitor will be introduced at the upcoming meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) during November 28 – December 3, 2010 in Chicago (IL, USA).

Sapheneia, AB (Stockholm, Sweden) is an imaging services company, which provides products and applications development services globally, specializing in diagnostic and analytical image processing product solutions for medical and scientific imaging.

PACSHealth, LLC (Scottsdale, AZ, USA) is a software development company specializing in systems for medical imaging.
