Sectra’s installed base of approximately 950 hospitals worldwide and more than 50% market share specifically in Scandinavia represents a significant opportunity for Vital Images to offer a visualization solution to new customers and to Sectra’s existing European installed base. Sectra will offer to its customers a solution that incorporates Vital Images’ advanced visualization and analysis tools with its powerful image and data management package.

Phil Smith, executive vice president of corporate development for Vital Images, said: We’ve enjoyed a strong relationship with Sectra in the US and are excited to build on that relationship to provide our European customers with an integrated solution that streamlines clinical workflow. This agreement supports our mutual commitments to simplifying complex data and enhancing communication enterprise-wide.
