Salt Lake City-based Intermountain Healthcare will apply a new imaging solution from Tissue Analytics across all hospitals, outpatient wound clinics and its home care group.
Tissue Analytics' services enable clinicians to take photographs of a patient's wounds using mobile technology. The health IT company's algorithms then determine a patient's wound-healing rate over time, which clinicians can use to measure patient progress.
Intermountain will embed the imaging algorithms into its Cerner EHR, so physicians can share data about patient wounds across the health system.
