In fact, RUBEE for AI embeds AI packages seamlessly in clinical workflows for true Augmented Intelligence. Supported by international AI pioneer, Dr Anjum Ahmed, Global Chief Medical Officer Agfa HealthCare, we will be delighted to show you the real-world results that our customers are achieving with RUBEE™ for AI and its disease-oriented clinical packages. Both at UKIO and ECR, Dr Ahmed will be available to discuss and demonstrate our measured and qualified clinical insights which we have extracted over the last two years.
XERO Exchange Network (XEN) for optimized healthcare networks clinical data sharing
Further innovations for congress readiness include enhancements to Agfa HealthCare’s XERO Exchange Network (XEN), formulated to optimise clinical data sharing within healthcare networks. Specifically for UKIO, we are delighted to host a series of customer showcases where the power of XEN can be seen – an IT lead from the Yorkshire Imaging Collaborative (YIC) will be presenting “System Insights from a Clinical Network” to healthcare providers who are starting their Integrated Care System (ICS) journey. Equally, our Cloud Innovation Leads will be present to explain the merits of scalable and cost controlled virtual hosting solutions, combined with consultative services on KLAS-qualified cyber readiness.

It is exciting to see such prestigious congresses ‘coming back to life’ and the excellent participation that they stand to receive from industry, partners and healthcare professionals. The radiology communities can expect to see Agfa HealthCare raising the bar, once again, with our clinical intuition and class-leading solutions.”Agfa HealthCare’s Managing Director for Region North, Roberto Anello, affirms the focus on engagement with the clinical community:
