Sectra has announced that its PACS will be installed at 15 breast centers owned by Charlotte, North Carolina-based Charlotte Radiology. The contract was officially signed in November.
“Even in an ever-evolving industry, our practice is thriving,” Deborah Agisim, MD, chief of mammography for Charlotte Radiology, said in a prepared statement. “Specifically, our breast imaging program is viewed as a national leader in the field, optimizing new technologies while continuing to elevate patient care.”
In April 2018, Charlotte Radiology and the healthcare investment firm of Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe announced the formation of a new venture, US Radiology Specialists. Charlotte Radiology also operates a mobile breast center, two vein centers and two interventional radiology sites. The group employs a team of more than 100 subspecialized radiologists who interpret more than 1 million studies annually.
