COVID-19 has profoundly impacted the radiology community. Hospitals, doctors’ offices and clinics fast found themselves overwhelmed with scans, at the same time as having to modify workflows to keep healthcare staff and patients safe. Looking ahead to the next phases of the pandemic and beyond, radiologists have the opportunity to re-examine their workflows, optimize processes and elevate patient care.

LG Business Solutions is committed to providing industry leading healthcare technologies to help institutions navigate this change and accelerate the rollout of quality care. From growing telehealth demands to understanding the radiologist journey, LG’s medical display product offerings and robust team of engineers and sales professionals help healthcare facilities determine which technologies best cater to their workflow demands.

LG’s medical devices first launched globally in 2016 and following global success, entered the Middle East and Africa market in 2018. Today, a number of medical institutions are utilizing LG’s advanced technologies. In the UAE, this includes organizations such as the Dubai Health Authority (DHA), Sheikh Khalifa Speciality Hospital, Mediclinic Parkview Hospital, and more.

The list continues as we look further afield across markets such as Qatar, Oman, Jordan, Egypt and Saudi Arabia. With this, LG is also partnering with leading healthcare manufacturers in the region to co-create for better outcomes. Examples include working with leading endoscope and imaging manufacturers KARL STORZ in the UAE and Jordan, PENTAX Medical in Egypt and GE Healthcare in the UAE.

From diagnostic, clinical review and surgical monitors, to digital x-ray detectors, LG offers the full spectrum of solutions to enable more accurate diagnosis and treatment of medical conditions. First-time-right imaging has proven itself to be more critical than ever, as healthcare practices are put under increasing strain. High resolution displays with customizable features for clinicians, technologists, and administrators are key to achieving this.

To ensure the most accurate and consistent shading possible for medical images and imaging applications, every grayscale tone on each LG medical display has been meticulously measured and calibrated to meet stringent DICOM Part 14 guidelines, in addition to undergoing rigorous quality-assurance testing. This is just one of the measures we have taken to deliver accuracy and peace-of-mind. Our solutions are also designed to be highly practical, promoting hygiene and easy to transport across different healthcare environments.

With the rapid changes being experienced in the healthcare sector, demand on telemedicine will only continue to grow. Telehealth solutions have shifted from being seen as a temporary measure to having clear, long-term benefits, from safety, practicality and accessibility standpoints. With this, the demand for diagnostic imaging equipment has peaked, and so too has the complementary nature of requiring advanced medical monitors and digital x-ray detectors. LG remains committed to helping medical intuitions navigate this journey, offering bespoke consultation and a complete suite of solutions to aid more accurate diagnosis and care.
