syngo.via is the intelligent, integrated imaging software, which offers multi-modality and fast 3D reading, innovative and AI-powered applications. It speeds up your routine and provides actionable imaging based results to enhance care delivery and outcomes.
The SyMRI MSK package supports a fast imaging workflow and enhanced capabilities to view tissue properties on an absolute scale in a short scan time. The application is now available for download on syngo.via from Siemens Healthineers
CERCARE Perfusion is now available in syngo.via OpenApps in Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Germany, Austria, United Kingdom, Netherlands and Switzerland and can be accessed directly from the Siemens Healthineers Digital Marketplace here.
Since Siemens Healthcare launched syngo.via, its imaging software for multimodality reading of clinical cases, clinicians worldwide are reporting significant workflow efficiency gains. More than 100 installations of syngo.via have been delivered worldwide, and healthcare organizations are already benefiting from the advantages of syngo.via embedded in their clinical routine with advanced visualization tools and automated processes leading to faster reading times and lowered costs. At the 96th Scientific Assembly and Annual Meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA), November 28 to December 2 at McCormick Place Chicago, Siemens will showcase a series of customer testimonials throughout its RSNA booth (Booth #822, East Building/Lakeside Center, Hall D) that will enable visitors to learn more about the solution first hand.
"syngo.via's speed and advanced applications are some of the things that impress me the most about this solution," explains Dr. Barton Milestone, vice chair, Diagnostic Imaging, and director of MRI, Fox Chase Cancer Center in Philadelphia.
Siemens Healthcare is conducting an efficiency survey about the most common advanced reading and visualization workflows with syngo.via across several clinics worldwide. This approach helps healthcare providers identify potential areas for efficiency gains and workflow optimization.
syngo.via background information
syngo.via interfaces with imaging devices, such as MRI, CT, and PET-CT scanners with Radiology Information Systems (RIS) and Picture Archiving and Communications Systems (PACS) of leading vendors, including Siemens' newest PACS solution, syngo.plaza. When syngo.via and syngo.plaza are combined, users are presented with direct, no-click access between the two technologies and a unified user-interface for faster reading. One of syngo.via's distinct advantages is its Automated Case Preparation functionality, which automatically loads images into the appropriate application and sorts them into the corresponding disease-specific layout, thereby eliminating the need to manually choose the application, load data, and select corresponding layouts. Also unique to syngo.via is the Case Navigator functionality, which supports structured workflow by categorizing various workflow steps and aligning the proper images to each corresponding step. Furthermore, during the reading process, findings and measurements can be automatically tracked and listed with the one-of-a-kind Findings Navigator, which allows users to effectively navigate between various findings with just one click.
In the world of radiology, the ability to manage and manipulate images is almost as important as the image itself. As such, utilizing an efficient, cost-effective imaging software solution is crucial for many facilities. In an effort to quantify and qualify how effective its imaging software is in the real world, Siemens recently undertook a study that turned the microscope on its syngo.via software.
The syngo.via software was originally introduced in 2009. It can be used as a stand-alone device or together with a variety of syngo.via-based software options. The software can process images from multiple modalities including interventional imaging, CT, MRI, oncology, cardiovascular imaging, and PET/CT.
In addition, syngo.via automatically prepares cases for reading and guides users step-by-step, tailored to the individual disease. The 3D reading and advanced visualization software enables clinicians to meet the respective requirements by automatically loading, for example, CT or MR images into the appropriate application and sorting them into the disease-specific corresponding layout. Manual work steps are eliminated and the clinician can start diagnosing immediately.
Recently, Siemens conducted a survey with customers in Germany, Austria, and Spain to measure the efficiency of the syngo.via software compared to a conventional advanced visualization workstation. Six medical sites participated in the efficiency study, which took account of a total number of seven different clinical workflows.
The study showed that the use of syngo.via can achieve time savings and patient-centric productivity gains in all of the observed workflows. The observed average time savings from syngo.via for CT cardiac amounted to 77%; for oncology diagnosis with PET/CT to 45%; when diagnosing oncology and neurology MR examinations, the syngo.via resulted in 32% and 23% time savings, respectively; for CT vascular, time savings amounted to 27%; and image evaluation for PET/CT and CT oncology follow-ups showed time savings of 30% and 16% compared to a conventional advanced visualization or PACS workstation.
In addition to this study, Siemens conducted a usability survey among the study participants. The six facilities stated that syngo.via is performing better regarding the aspects data preparation, usability of viewing and measurement tools, and documentation and reporting than the former software.
