New KLAS Medical Imaging Buyers Guide Geared to Assist Providers with Purchasing Decisions

    OREM, UT, November 18, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Healthcare research firm KLAS today launched a new RSNA Resource Center (www.KLASresearch.com/RSNA) to help providers attending the 2011 Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) conference make informed technology buying decisions.

The RSNA Resource Center features a variety of radiology-focused KLAS reports, including the new "KLAS Medical Imaging Buyers Guide 2011," which offers product ratings for more than three hundred modalities and software packages, all based on the feedback of thousands of healthcare providers. Each rated product within the buyers guide has been given an overall letter grade, to help providers quickly compile a short list of vendors to consider while walking the RSNA show floor or after the event. Market segments covered in the "KLAS Medical Imaging Buyers Guide 2011" include computed tomography (CT), PACS, ultrasound, teleradiology and many others.

In addition to the buyers guide, KLAS' RSNA Resource Center contains several other KLAS report summaries that are available for download by healthcare providers. These reports include:

- "Teleradiology Services 2011: Times Are Changing"
- "General Ultrasound: Innovation on the Move"
- "Ambulatory RIS/PACS: Integrating Provider Needs"
- "Cardiology 2011: Will the Complete CVIS Please Stand Up?"
- "MRI 2011: New Technology Hits the Ground Running"
- "KLAS Medical Imaging Buyers Guide 2011"

Healthcare providers can access the RSNA Resource Center by going to www.KLASresearch.com/RSNA. A complimentary hard copy of the report will also be available to providers during RSNA 2011 at KLAS Booth #1102 while supplies last.
