AGFA HealthCare and Evolucare: a strategic alliance and ambitious collaboration
During the 2025 edition of the Journées Francophones de Radiologie (JFR), JT de la Radiologie visited the Evolucare stand for an exclusive interview with AGFA HealthCare.
The meeting highlighted an ambitious collaboration with a common goal: to make the Enterprise Imaging Platform the new benchmark for medical imaging in France.
A history of continuous innovation
For Ann Deroose, Sales Director for France, Benelux and the Nordic countries at AGFA HealthCare, this alliance is part of a long-standing commitment to innovation and performance:
« Our PACS transformed radiology 20 years ago. Today, our award-winning Enterprise Imaging platform proves that AGFA HealthCare continues to be at the forefront of innovation. »
With Enterprise Imaging, AGFA HealthCare offers much more than a PACS: a 100% streaming imaging platform, with no installation required, natively integrating artificial intelligence, intelligent display protocols, integrated workflow management and accurate reporting.
Designed to adapt to complex hospital and regional environments, it meets the needs of hospital groups, university hospitals, private institutions and imaging networks.
« Enterprise Imaging breaks free from technical constraints to offer radiologists working in complex organisations a new approach to diagnosis. It promotes seamless collaboration between specialities, while protecting existing investments. » – Ann Deroose
