Medical imaging firm Sectra has signed a contract to provide joint cloud-based enterprise imaging services to four U.K. National Health Service (NHS) trusts, or hospital groups.
The agreement was signed in the second quarter of the 2025-2026 fiscal year, according to the firm; the amount agreed on is £27.5 million (€31.5 million), of which £14 million (€16 million) is guaranteed.
Under the contract, Sectra will provide the four NHS trusts -- Blackpool Teaching Hospitals, East Lancashire Hospitals, Lancashire Teaching Hospitals, and University Hospitals of Morecambe Bay in Lancashire and South Cumbria -- with enterprise imaging through its Sectra One Cloud service.
Three of the four trusts are existing customers; according to Sectra, all four will consolidate their radiology imaging and breast imaging into Sectra One Cloud to facilitate collaboration across the trusts’ 15 sites, which serve around 1.8 million people across the region.
The joint cloud service consolidation will strengthen cybersecurity and simplify IT management for the trusts, as Sectra One Cloud is a fully managed service that is monitored, optimized, and continuously upgraded by Sectra, the firm said.
Sectra One Cloud can also be scaled to meet rising volumes and support expansion into additional imaging specialties.
