DEN HAAG, Netherlands, 2014-03-04 14:37 CET (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
Vital Images, Inc., a Toshiba Medical Systems Group Company, continues its
expansion in the EMEA market with an increasing number of organizations
migrating to Vital's VitreaAdvanced(r) enterprise solution, to help improve
efficiency, communication and patient care. 

'While Vital has more than 5,000 worldwide installations, more healthcare
facilities are moving medical imaging to the enterprise to provide their
clinicians with access to medical images anytime from anywhere. Our sites
within EMEA have historically been workstation-based, but the trend is quickly
moving towards providing instant access to the information needed to make
informed decisions through Vital's VitreaAdvanced enterprise imaging software,'
said Steve Andersen, Executive Vice President, International at Vital. 

'It is imperative to give our clinicians the best results possible. I need to
be able to show and adapt reconstructions and measurements independent of my
location,' said Dr. Stefan Niehues, at Charite' University Medical Center in
Berlin. 'By moving from a workstation-based solution to the VitreaAdvanced
enterprise-wide solution we are able to read studies and collaborate from
anywhere, including home, which improves our ability to provide efficient
patient care.' 

VitreaAdvanced will be featured in the Vital (Expo C, # 320) and Toshiba (Expo
C, booth #321) stands at The European Congress of Radiology (ECR) in Vienna,
March 6-10.
