Sectra Extends Alliance with R2 Technology

R2 will distribute the Sectra universal mammography workstation and other PACS components.

Sectra and R2 began this cooperation in 2004 with the integration of R2's CAD technology with Sectra's digital mammography system. Through the extended cooperation, R2 will now sell and support the Sectra mammography PACS components as part of its own product line to end users in the United States and Canada, additionally strengthening the Sectra presence in this significant field. In addition, R2's ImageChecker D digital mammography CAD results can now also be displayed on Sectra's mammography workstation.

"The Sectra mammography workstation and PACS is a well-accepted, state-of-the-art, multi-modality, vendor-neutral solution,” said John Goble, president of Sectra North America. "This is particularly important, given that a growing number of centers often have a mix of digital mammography systems from multiple vendors, as well as the need to review prior digitized film mammograms or breast images acquired by ultrasound and MRI. The Sectra mammography workstation excels in such an environment.”
