Park Ridge Hospital to install multiple Kodak imaging and information systems
Park Ridge Hospital in western North Carolina has inked multi-million-dollar deal with Eastman Kodak to “transform” the hospital’s currently film-based radiology department to feature the latest digital image and information management technologies. The installation of the various Kodak systems is expected to be complete by year’s end, according to a release.
Under the agreement, Park Ridge will purchase a CARESTREAM PACS the company’s CARESTREAM Enterprise Information Management (EIM), which will enable centralized management of images and information — such as physicians’ reports and administrative documents — from radiology, cardiology and other clinical and business areas.
