Providing rich integration with your existing electronic health record (EHR) system, Merge Imaging Suite VNA creates a holistic imaging view of the patient’s medical history, allowing physicians to access current and historical studies directly, in context, with their viewer of choice.
Fully cloud-native and backed by Microsoft Azure, Merge Imaging Suite VNA supports both hybrid and cloud-native deployments, allowing us us to meet you exactly where you are in your cloud journey.
Moving your image lifecycle management to a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model offers significant strategic advantages. It allows your organization to shift technology investments from capital expenditures to predictable operational expenses. Additionally, the platform scales up or down automatically as your enterprise needs change, meaning you never have to worry about running out of storage capacity during periods of rapid growth. Future upgrades and enhancements deploy automatically in the background, freeing your IT staff from burdensome maintenance cycles, and ensuring you’re always accessing the latest enhancements and security updates.
Built specifically for the realities facing imaging clinical teams today, Merge Imaging Suite VNA includes targeted enhancements aimed to making imaging more reliable, reducing complexity, and enabling better outcomes for patients.
Merge Imaging Suite VNA features replicated content management to ensure near-zero downtime and maximum resiliency, keeping your patient data available exactly when you need it.
New customizable dashboards and intuitive DIY tools drastically reduce the time it takes administrators to perform archive searches, edit objects, and manage the data lifecycle, helping to reduce administrative friction among teams.
Integrated standards-based artificial intelligence workflow and quality control ensures that as you adopt new AI tools for image triage and analysis, your archive can seamlessly support and route that data.
Data breaches carry massive financial and reputational risks. Merge Imaging Suite VNA provides enhanced, industrial-grade security. These protocols are rigorously validated by third parties and backed by the global security infrastructure of Microsoft Azure, keeping you fully compliant with healthcare regulations.
Merge combines trusted technology and deep industry expertise to help push healthcare forward – for more reliable imaging, less complexity, and better care. With Merge Imaging Suite VNA v26.0, healthcare providers and care teams gain a powerful, scalable, and secure solution for enterprise imaging.
