Fundación Favaloro unifies its diagnostic imaging services in the cloud
A next-generation platform that drives more agile, secure and connected care
Institution
Fundación Favaloro, one of the most prestigious medical institutions in Argentina and Latin America, undertook a strategic transformation of its Diagnostic Imaging service to support sustained growth and its ongoing commitment to medical excellence. The objective was clear: to unify all imaging modalities and workflows into a single modern, scalable and secure platform, aligned with current digital healthcare standards.
With Dedalus’ DeepUnity PACSonWEB on the AWS cloud, the institution integrated all imaging modalities into a centralized digital environment, improving traceability, collaboration and the user experience for both physicians and patients.
Challenges
The Diagnostic Imaging department was operating with a fragmented infrastructure. Its previous PACS, based on an on-premise model, limited the management of high-complexity studies, requiring the outsourcing of processes, creating information silos and reducing operational efficiency.
Fundación Favaloro needed a solution that would:
Unify all images and workflows within a single modern and scalable platform.
Integrate all service areas under a unified digital experience to enhance collaboration and efficiency.
Lay the foundations for a diagnostic model aligned with modern medical standards.
Solution
To address these challenges, Fundación Favaloro implemented Dedalus’ DeepUnity PACSonWEB on the AWS cloud, integrating all imaging modalities into a single centralized interface. This cloud-native solution enables collaborative management of studies, reports and visualizations, with web access without VPN, high availability, advanced security and on-demand scalability. The implementation was carried out progressively, with strong support and training for both clinical and technical teams.
“Unifying diagnostics with DeepUnity PACSonWEB on AWS was the means; the real transformation was how we managed to connect our teams and improve patient care.” Dr. German Parra, Medical Coordinator, Computed Tomography Service
Benefits
By integrating its imaging services with DeepUnity PACSonWEB on AWS, Fundación Favaloro was able to:
- Increase Diagnostic Imaging service productivity by 87% following workflow unification
- Boost the volume of processed studies, growing from 8,000 to 15,000 exams per month since go-live
- Enable fast and secure access to studies from any device for healthcare professionals and patients
- Unify all imaging modalities into a single centralized platform, eliminating information silos
- Enhance clinical collaboration, enabling real-time work among technicians, radiologists and specialists
- Ensure high scalability and stable performance, even during peak demand, without investing in local infrastructure
- Improve traceability and access control, strengthening security and compliance with medical data protection standards
- Reduce technical maintenance, ensuring continuous service availability
“The solution truly supports our daily work. Accessibility and unlimited users are two of its most important added values. The ability to share studies with patient consent and to know who accesses them and for what purpose places us at the forefront of data protection.”
Dr. Marinucci, Head of the Diagnostic Imaging Department
