Agfa HealthCare is now furnishing its Impax PACS/RIS to Orbis Medical Center in Sittard-Geleen, the Netherlands, as an offsite, managed-services project.
Since 2006, the Dutch center had used a third-party IT provider to host its Impax PACS/RIS as a software-as-a-service (SaaS). As of February, Agfa has been delivering the SaaS, as well as long-term archiving, from data centers in Aalsmeer, the Netherlands, and Agfa's headquarters in Antwerp, Belgium.
Under the contract with the 570-bed facility, Agfa handles service-level management, application management, system management and administration, infrastructure (servers and storage) and application provisioning, data-center provisioning, and telecommunications infrastructure.
![A normal mammogram confirmed by three-year radiologic follow-up illustrates reader-marked regions of interest (ROIs) during (A) unaided (round 1) and (B) artificial intelligence (AI)–assisted (round 2) reading. Each colored dot represents an ROI for recall by a human reader. Readers could mark more than one ROI per case, represented by multiple dots of the same color. During AI-assisted reading, the AI system displayed three visible prompts: two with suspicion of malignancy scores of 35% (left mediolateral oblique [L MLO] and craniocaudal [L CC]) and one with a suspicion of malignancy score of 10% (right craniocaudal [R CC]), shown as polygonal overlays. Without AI, six of 10 readers (60%) marked a false-positive ROI. With AI assistance, this fell to two of 10 (20%). R MLO = right mediolateral oblique.](https://img.auntminnieeurope.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/07/2026-07-14-radiology-mammogram-ai-auto-bias.H0bYO8QlWs.jpg?auto=format%2Ccompress&dpr=2&fit=crop&h=167&q=70&w=250)
