RaySearch releases a new version of the RayCare oncology information system
RaySearch Laboratories AB (publ) has released RayCare 2B*, the latest version of the groundbreaking oncology information system (OIS). RayCare is designed to support the workflow in a modern oncology center, connecting the different oncology disciplines, boosting efficiency and ensuring optimal use of resources.
RayCare is developing rapidly with clinical input from some of the leading cancer centers worldwide, and this is the second of three releases during 2018.
The first clinical version of RayCare was released in December 2017, and Iridium Cancer Network in Belgium started using it clinically after only two months. Provision CARES Proton Therapy Center in Nashville, USA, has been using RayCare together with RayStation to manage their patients since opening of the center in July this year.
RayCare 2B introduces new features and usability improvements throughout the system, including a feature to support a full treatment delivery and management workflow and task-based offline image review. Other care administration features include support for financial information, such as insurance information and authorization management, and support for managing external contacts, referring clinicians and other external entities.
Johan Löf, CEO of RaySearch, says: “The latest release of RayCare is an important step on the road we are paving for this OIS. The pace of the releases is set to support our clinical partners with a continuously strong development, redefining what an OIS is capable of.”
