Calgary Scientific receives award for
breakthrough
CALGARY – Calgary Scientific Inc.,
a leading innovator in advanced visualization solutions and real time
collaboration, has been awarded the 2010 North American Medical Imaging
Remote Medicine Healthcare Innovation of the Year Award by Frost &
Sullivan, an independent research firm that recognizes companies who
demonstrate outstanding achievement and performance.
Frost & Sullivan presented the award at Radiological Society of North
America (RSNA) 2010 in Chicago on November 29, 2010. Calgary Scientific
is recognized for their innovations in the healthcare industry;
specifically in relation to remote and mobile imaging breakthroughs
based on their multi-patented PureWeb platform technology and
ResolutionMD products.
The Frost & Sullivan Excellence in Best Practices Awards recognize
companies that are predicted to demonstrate significant growth in their
industries, have identified meaningful emerging trends before they
become the standard practice in the marketplace, and have created
advanced technologies that will catalyze and transform industries in the
near future. In order to identify best practices, independent industry
analysts compare market participants and measure performance through
in-depth interviews, analysis, and extensive secondary research.
“Calgary Scientific’s products boast some of the most meaningful
features for today’s market. Its zero-footprint server-client
architecture is among the ‘thinnest’ in the market in that it requires
no initial download, no proprietary software outside of standard
browsers, works on a wide range of devices from remote personal desktops
to smartphones, to tablets and PDAs,” says Nadim Daher, Analyst at Frost
& Sullivan. “In practice, this flexibility in the IT translates directly
into anytime-anywhere access and seamless availability of
full-functionality advanced visualization functions to referring
physicians and general practitioners in the broader healthcare
enterprise. The market is starting to realize that only through such
effective remote visualization solutions, can they fully leverage
advanced visualization as an enterprise asset.”
The accolade symbolizes a breakthrough year for Calgary Scientific with
significant recognition and interest in their web and mobility
enablement technology, PureWeb, from numerous industries. Mobility,
security and seamless integration into existing systems are the driving
factors in the company’s success and steady growth.
“Being recognized in this manner, based on independent research,
significantly enhances the meaningfulness of this award to industry
participants,” says Byron Osing, CEO and Chair of Calgary Scientific.
“The mobile healthcare sector is predicted to explode over the next five
years and it’s thrilling to us at Calgary Scientific that Frost &
Sullivan has recognized our leading technical capability in relation to
being an enabler behind this movement, with our PureWeb platform.”
