Konica Minolta Medical Imaging (KMMI) is collaborating with healthcare providers across specialties and disciplines to improve use of Primary Imaging at the point-of-care. Primary Imaging, such as Digital Radiography and Ultrasound, is the first image before any other imaging; it encompasses 70% of all diagnostic medical imaging studies. Working with KMMI Design Thinking specialists, healthcare providers can customize their Primary Imaging Solutions to their individual, evolving needs. This Design Thinking approach, as well as information regarding new solution enhancements will be available in the South Hall, Booth # 2729 at the RSNA 2015 Scientific Assembly and Annual Meeting in Chicago, Ill.
In today’s outcomes-focused healthcare environment, providers use the immediate information provided by Primary Imaging to better diagnose and help choose when to use more expensive, advanced diagnostic tools, such as CT scans and MRIs. When supported by end-to-end IT systems and expert service teams, Primary Imaging data helps healthcare teams collaborate and make informed decisions – quickly, cost-effectively and confidently.
Over the past years, KMMI has been a pioneer in Design Thinking. Collaboration with customers has helped the company co-create solutions that keep pace with emerging needs. Based on customer feedback, the company has now formally integrated Design Thinking into solution enhancements and future Primary Imaging Solutions.
Recently, Konica Minolta Medical Imaging sponsored Healthovate! Activate!, which is a platform for dialogue on the future of healthcare. At this event, Konica Minolta Medical Imaging conducted a Primary Imaging Design Thinking Lab. With these key learnings, and the discoveries from other Primary Imaging Design Thinking Labs, Konica Minolta Medical Imaging will fine tune it co-creation tool, and continue to engage with healthcare providers at the point-of-care, to deepen its existing findings and implement these ideas into its co-creation approaches and solutions.
Konica Minolta Medical Imaging recently acquired Viztek, a leading provider of complete digital software and hardware imaging solutions, which enhances the company’s Healthcare IT software solutions through image sharing and viewing.
