GE HealthCare Enhances Digital Imaging with MIM Encore™ Integration

This release targets critical healthcare challenges, including improving operational efficiency, streamlining communication across departments, and reducing manual workload.

GE HealthCare has introduced an updated software solution combining its proprietary features with MIM Encore™, a platform designed to enhance digital imaging and workflow management.

This release targets critical healthcare challenges, including improving operational efficiency, streamlining communication across departments, and reducing manual workload.

The integration provides advanced post-processing tools tailored for GE HealthCare systems, enabling high-quality image production with reduced effort. It supports PET/CT, SPECT/CT, and multi-modality fusion imaging in a unified platform, promoting faster and more accurate diagnoses while facilitating consistent clinician communication.

Jean-Luc Procaccini, President & CEO, Molecular Imaging & Computed Tomography, GE HealthCare, stated, “In today’s rapidly evolving healthcare landscape, operational efficiency and seamless collaboration are not just goals — they’re the cornerstone to success. That’s why we aim to provide tools that can help enhance providers’ confidence in decision making and support patients in receiving personalized care.”

Specialized Applications in Oncology, Cardiology, and Neurology

In oncology, the software simplifies SPECT image processing with features like resolution recovery, attenuation and scatter correction, advanced filtering, and motion correction. These enhancements allow clinicians to view dynamic and static scans and access quantitative tools with less manual input.

Cardiology imaging benefits from MIM Encore’s advanced PET and SPECT capabilities, including motion correction, automated quality checks, and support for key radiotracers. The software incorporates algorithms such as Evolution for Cardiac, developed at Johns Hopkins and the University of North Carolina, designed to deliver high-quality images at reduced scan times or doses.

Neurology applications focus on neurodegenerative imaging with reconstruction workflows featuring 3D rendering and advanced corrections. These tools assist clinicians in diagnosis, treatment planning, and evaluation by providing consistent, high-quality images.

Andrew Nelson, CEO of MIM Software, a GE HealthCare Company, commented, “Customers are telling us that this pairing is exactly what users have been looking for. The combined solution enables streamlined, accurate image reading, supports quantitative analysis out of the box, and helps eliminate manual entries.”

Enhanced Workflow and Automation

The new release includes GE HealthCare’s Effortless Workflow integration with MIM Encore. This feature offers customizable interfaces and automation designed to help clinicians manage increasing caseloads efficiently and reduce burnout.

GE HealthCare acquired MIM Software in 2024 to combine multi-modality imaging, quantitation, and workflow automation expertise.
