"The desire to change society for the better has driven us for over 40 years and we offer products and services within medical IT and cybersecurity. By helping hospitals and those who train future healthcare personnel to improve their efficiency, patients will receive better care.
With a truly cloud-based solution we have helped transform medical education across the board, from institutions of higher education to postgraduate education, to create a system that prepares students to meet the needs of today's patients and anticipate the changes of tomorrow."
Sectra Education Portal is an integrated platform that gives you the full strength of the Sectra portfolio, adapted to medical teachers and students, including advanced digital tools, real patient cases and a fully integrated dissector atlas. It can be used in traditional classroom as well as remote teaching settings, and ties in anatomy, histology, radiology, traumatology, and other specialties.
Students can interact with medical images in a realistic way, which creates a deeper insight into anatomy as well as functions and processes in the body. In this way, we help bring clinical reality to medical education, creating a bridge between theory and practice.
Highlights:
This new educational experience provides wider access for all users to different levels of medical education. The intuitive interface with an image library structured in snapshots combined with outstanding search opportunities enables both new and experienced users to browse and find the most relevant content for their needs.
User accounts are managed online, and depending on the assigned role, various cutting edge visualization tools and functions are made available to e.g. interact, import, edit, organize and present content in an efficient way with the possibility to assimilate a clinical workflow.
In addition to the cloud solution, teachers and students have the possibility to use Sectra terminals. These large, immersive and interactive touch devices provide optimal touch interaction and visualization to further improve the experience in and performance of Sectra Education Portal.
The Sectra Table allows users to easily explore and examine virtual representations of real bodies in minute detail. 3D images are quickly rendered from data provided by CT and MR scans.
Interacting with 3D volumes through a touch interface is similar to using a smartphone. By simply touching the screen, you can interact with the imedicamage intuitively. You can swipe, scroll, zoom, rotate and navigate inside the images as well as remove layers of skin and muscle and dissect the body with a virtual knife.
A combination of the highly relevant medical cases and the possibility of intuitive image interaction maximizes learning and the potential for group engagement and interaction.

We are impressed by the simplicity and elegance of the solution that was presented to us by HSL. Being able to intervene, support our colleagues and conduct remote consultations with the patient from a tablet or phone has changed how we work and speeds up diagnosis and time critical treatments. Time is of the essence when treating someone who has had a stroke, so literally every minute counts. The Telehealth platform has the potential to make a significant contribution to improved patient outcomes after stroke, especially during late evening and overnight periods.

Telehealth has played a vital role during the Coronavirus pandemic as it has enabled our team to conduct a number of urgent video-consultations for patients at home which have obviated the need for them to come to the emergency department. Parental anxiety has been more heightened than usual due to the pandemic, therefore we have found that supporting families at home with regular video-consultations has helped to reduce stress, reduce health service utilisation and is much appreciated by parents and clinicians alike.

In addition to the streamlined workflow which the system offers that enables our team to treat more patients more effectively, the adaptability of the system means that the same technology can be used for diagnostic imaging of patients ranging from paediatrics to elderly patients. The technology will also help our team to answer the growing demand for chest x-rays as patients dealing with prolonged ‘long-Covid’ symptoms continue to present with ongoing imaging requirements.
