Dell announces plans to acquire InSite One |
|
|
Dell has said that it plans to acquire cloud-based medical archiving company InSite One, Inc. to simplify healthcare data retention by organizations. The company said that the combination of InSite One’s cloud-based, vendor-neutral archive software and storage services with Dell’s own Unified Clinical Archive solution would ease data retention and allow medical professionals access and share images regardless of the technology employed. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.  Dell said that the inability lack of sharing images between medical professionals in the diagnosis and treatment of disease was one of the biggest shortcomings in the healthcare sector today. The computer maker cited research by ESG Research, saying that medical image data in North America is projected to grow over 35% per annum, reaching 2.6 million terabytes by 2014, with government and industry retention requirements, new modalities and increasing resolution of medical images themselves creating an unprecedented demand for their storage. Headquartered in Wallingford, Conn., InSite One manages almost 55 million clinical studies, over 3.6 billion medical images and supports almost 800 clinical sites. The company's scalable cloud infrastructure supports all PACS, data sources and modalities. It helps manage image size and complexity, incomplete patient records by allowing clinicians web-enabled image access, image delivery speeds, data security and privacy, and lowers costs. Dell said InSite One will give it a storage-as-a-service platform to archive digital content for companies in other industries on a subscription or pay-as-you-go. |
