FDA clears Siemens ’ remote scanning software

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has cleared Siemens Healthineers' syngo Virtual Cockpit remote scanning software. Syngo Virtual Cockpit is a communication platform for real-time image visualization, acquisition, and collaboration between healthcare professionals across multiple sites. The software enables users to connect to CT, MRI, PET, SPECT, PET/CT, SPECT/CT, and PET/MRI scanners from Siemens as well as other equipment vendors, regardless of location. The software allows radiologic technologists to use live audio, video, and chat functions to conduct scans or provide support for up to three different remote scanners simultaneously, Siemens said. The software addresses technologist shortages and enables standardized care across sites, according to the company.
