Case Study: WWL Teaching Hospitals transforms radiology reading with Barco diagnostic displays

Barco diagnostic displays transform viewing experience at WWL Teaching Hospitals

The radiology department at Wrightington, Wigan and Leigh Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (WWL), a UK-based public healthcare provider, faced the challenge of upgrading its aging diagnostic display fleet. Their goals were to adopt newer technology for more radiologists and to roll out a comprehensive home-working plan to deal with the pandemic, all within a very short delivery time. They chose to partner with Barco for this critical upgrade.

Barco implemented a solution consisting of 37 Coronis Fusion 6MP displays, 8 Coronis Uniti 12MP displays, and 24" Eonis displays for home offices, all installed over a single weekend. The Coronis Uniti displays allowed for PACS and mammography to be combined on a single screen, providing a transformative reading experience. According to the PACS Manager, the project was a success due to Barco's product durability, the unique technology no other vendor could offer on schedule, and the outstanding support provided by the Barco team.
