Enterprise Imaging
Practitioners across the enterprise need access to images to provide the best patient care. This interoperability is critical for diagnosis, treatment, follow-up, and care coordination.
Synapse VNA (vendor neutral archive) was designed for true imaging interoperability. It provides secure, easy-to-manage storage and access to the complete patient imaging record and links all HIT systems.
- Secure and enable control of all image data with Image Life Cycle Management tools.
- Create a single, patient-centric view across the entire continuum of care.
- Manage all DICOM and non-DICOM enterprise clinical imaging content in the single most scalable storage solution available.
- Connect imaging content across all enterprise imaging using VNA-inherent workflow.
- Integrate all your imaging systems; Synapse VNA has connected more third-party systems than any other VNA.

Practitioners across the enterprise need access to images to provide the best patient care. This interoperability is critical for diagnosis, treatment, follow-up, and care coordination. However, technology can get in the way of meaningful data sharing. Different EHR/RIS/PACS systems were not designed to communicate easily with one another. The situation burdens IT systems, creates clinical silos, impedes workflow and security, and can compromise patient care. Synapse VNA (vendor neutral archive) was designed for true imaging interoperability. It provides secure, easy-to-manage storage and access to the complete patient imaging record, and links all HIT systems.
UNMATCHED SCALABILITY with over 10 billion images stored and counting, in some of the largest health systems in the world.

Images are not ancillary data. They play a critical role across the continuum of care. However, different specialties have unique requirements for viewing and interpreting that data, even as they care for the same patient. Access and usability are vital to a clinical team’s ability to share and integrate image content. Create a more complete EHR for optimal patient care. Synapse VNA connects imaging content from more specialties than any other system.
- Create a single patient-centric view across the entire continuum of care
- View both DICOM and non-DICOM images (native PDF files, video files, sound files, JPEG, TIFF images, and more)
- Access images across a comprehensive range of specialties
- View both DICOM and non-DICOM images (native PDF files, video files, sound files, JPEG, TIFF images, and more)
- Use any computer or mobile device for secure anytime, anywhere access
- Extend standards-based workflows to clinical departments
