As demand for diagnostic imaging continues to grow, healthcare providers need technology that helps them work smarter, maintain compliance, and support clinicians without adding operational complexity.

That’s exactly the challenge Hexarad set out to solve.

Hexarad supports NHS radiology services by combining expert reporting capacity with intelligent operational software, helping healthcare providers manage demand, improve reporting turnaround times, and maintain clinical quality. As its network of clinicians expanded, the organisation needed a display solution that could scale alongside it while ensuring every workstation remained compliant with NHS standards.

Finding the Right Technology Partner

Hexarad wasn’t simply looking for new hardware. It needed a partner that shared its commitment to improving patient care and supporting clinicians through innovation.

Managing diagnostic displays across a distributed workforce presented several challenges. The team wanted to reduce the need for on-site interventions, automate display calibration and quality assurance, proactively identify faults, and maintain a reliable supply chain that ensured clinicians received equipment quickly and consistently.

Most importantly, the solution needed to integrate seamlessly into Hexarad’s existing workflow, allowing its teams to spend less time managing devices and more time supporting clinicians.

Delivering an Integrated Solution

HSL worked closely with Hexarad to deliver a complete Barco diagnostic display solution, combining high-performance medical displays with the Barco QAWeb Enterprise platform.

The solution provides centralised workstation management, automated calibration, quality assurance, compliance reporting, and proactive fault monitoring. With remote management built into the platform, Hexarad’s engineering team can oversee its display estate efficiently while ensuring workstations consistently meet NHS requirements.

Alongside the technology, HSL provides a dependable supply chain, ensuring diagnostic displays are delivered where they’re needed, when they’re needed, supporting Hexarad’s growing clinical network.

Delivering Measurable Benefits

The introduction of Barco QAWeb has transformed the way Hexarad manages workstation compliance.

Rather than spending valuable engineering time manually checking each workstation, compliance is monitored automatically in the background. The team can simply review results through the QAWeb portal, freeing up time to focus on delivering an efficient service to clinicians.

As Corey Frazer, Associate Director of Clinical Systems at Hexarad, explains:

“I don’t worry about calibration or QA anymore. It’s taken care of, and that peace of mind lets me focus on what actually moves the needle, like turnaround time.”

He adds:

“Barco QAWeb saves us over an hour on every workstation simply by automating compliance checks. It runs entirely in the background, requiring no input from either our reporting clinicians or our engineering team. Instead of manually verifying each workstation, we can quickly review the results through the QAWeb portal and move on, giving our team more time to focus on supporting clinicians and delivering an efficient service.”

Supporting Better Patient Care

At HSL, we understand that diagnostic displays are more than just hardware, they’re a critical part of delivering safe, accurate patient care.

By combining industry-leading Barco technology with expert advice, dependable supply, and ongoing support, we’re helping organisations like Hexarad build resilient, compliant imaging environments that enable clinicians to focus on what matters most: delivering exceptional care.
