Siemens Wins $25 Million Contract From Rush University Medical Center

October 26, 2010 By Bio-Medicine.Org

MALVERN, Pa., Oct. 26 /PRNewswire/ — Rush University Medical
Center in Chicago, one of the top academic medical centers in the
United States, has awarded a five-year, $25 million contract for
medical equipment and health IT consulting services to Siemens
Medical Solutions USA, Inc. With the addition of Siemens medical
imaging equipment and software, Rush will become one of a select
group of medical centers in the country incorporating the concept
of an interventional platform within its facility.

The upgraded medical infrastructure is a crucial part of the
Rush Transformation, a 10-year campus redevelopment plan whose
centerpiece is a major new hospital building scheduled to open in
January 2012.

The Siemens portfolio of imaging solutions includes both single-
and biplane angiography systems that will be used in interventional
radiology, neurointervention, cardiac intervention and
electrophysiology.  These systems are used to visualize
vessels and soft tissues for life-saving procedures, such as
percutaneous cardiac intervention, complex electrophysiology
procedures, carotid stenting, and coiling for brain aneurysms. Once
all of the equipment is in place, the facility’s goal is to design
an interventional platform that encourages collaboration between
specialists by placing diagnostic testing, treatment and recovery
on the same floor, while providing patients with a single
destination for their image-guided procedures.

As part of this strategic alliance, Siemens will also provide
high-end computed tomography (CT) scanners with excellent
resolution, faster imaging speeds and software to reduce radiation
dose. Also included are 3.0-Tesla magnetic resonance imaging
systems (MRIs) designed for neurological imaging, direct-digital
radiography systems that can perform an X-ray scan in half
