Linköping, Sweden and Shelton, CT – April 13, 2021 – International medical imaging IT and cybersecurity company Sectra (STO: SECT B) has received an order from UC San Diego Health to provide the Sectra VNA, universal viewer, and worklist manager. They are the first of the UC Health campuses to order and deploy the Sectra Enterprise Imaging solution of which Sectra will be the cross-departmental workflow engine and long-term archive for all imaging at UC San Diego Health. Additionally, all breast radiologists, surgeons, pathologists, and orthopedists will utilize Sectra for viewing, diagnostics, surgical planning, and collaboration.

UC San Diego Health is one of six academic medical centers that comprise UC Health. They maintain a regional strategy with three hospitals as well as primary and urgent care clinics located throughout the San Diego region.

We will interface with multiple third parties to deliver a seamless, highly integrated solution,” says Anthony Grise, Vice President of Sales at Sectra, Inc.
