Siemens inks dose management deal

Siemens Healthcare has signed an agreement to incorporate Radimetrics' radiation dose management and reporting system into syngo Workflow RIS.

When combined with syngo Workflow RIS, the system captures radiation dose information in a diagnostic report. The integration will help hospitals and imaging centers to comply with dose monitoring requirements, according to Siemens and Radimetrics.

The system features a cumulative dose tracking scorecard, a dosimetry worksheet that incorporates a simulation engine, protocol management tools with support for multiple scanners, and dose reporting dashboards.

Bridgefield Capital, founded in 2015, has previously invested in such popular brands as Cirque Du Soleil, Del Monte and Quiksilver. This transaction is expected to be completed in the second half of 2025. 

Given the precarious excitement of the moment—or is it exciting precarity?—policymakers and healthcare leaders must set directives guiding not only what to do with AI but also when to do it.
