Interpretation Diagnostic

We provide highly reliable remote interpretation (image diagnostic) services by diagnostic radiologists using AI diagnostics as well. In addition to radiologists and diagnostic specialists in the hospital, we also utilize remote interpretation (image diagnostic), in which a diagnostic radiologist at the Radiology Center interpretates the images via the network. The high reliability of the service, including speedy interpretation by high quality radiologists, highly accurate reports, and a secure network, provides powerful support for the front lines of clinical practice.
Global Scanning Clinic Futako-tamagawa is connected to the interpretation center via IP-VPN, and information is encrypted to minimize the risk of information leakage. You can use the service at ease.
