SonoSync software allows clinicians to engage in real-time collaboration with experts, no matter their location, and provide quality patient care in communities that may lack access to obstetricians and other specialists. Providers at HHM Health regularly utilize SonoSync via the clinic’s Samsung V7 ultrasound system to connect with obstetricians, Maternal Fetal Medicine specialists, Fetal Therapists and others. This allows such experts to join appointments remotely, guide sonographers during ultrasound examinations and provide recommendations that can impact care when time is of the essence. This type of remote access can help break down economic, transportation and language barriers for patients who otherwise may not receive the type of care they need.

“We’re honored to receive this award and to play a part in HHM Health’s work as they provide care to underserved communities in the Dallas area,” said Tracy Bury, Women’s Health Segment Leader for Boston Imaging. “A patient’s ability to access the care they need shouldn’t be limited by their geographic location, the language they speak or their proximity to certain experts. SonoSync can help bridge these gaps and provide quality care when its needed most.”

The Samsung V7 ultrasound system used at HHM Health not only connects clinicians with experts but utilizes AI to assist sonographers with measuring and labeling anatomic structures during exams, enhancing the quality of examinations and patient care. Latasha Jarrett, MD of HHM Health commented “When we explained the need, your company (Samsung), cared enough to help us serve the underserved.”

“We are committed to enhancing patient and clinician experiences with AI technology whenever possible,” said David Legg, Head of Boston Imaging. “The opportunities for innovation are endless and we will continue to develop systems that can help fill gaps in patient care.”

Boston Imaging was honored to be chosen for the Healthcare Innovator Award. Tracy Bury, Beth Carini, John Dixon, and Anthony Tardi were present at the Luncheon to accept the award on behalf of Boston Imaging.
