Cloud-Hosted Architecture Strengthens Scalability and Efficiencies for More Radiation Therapy Teams
Sun Nuclear Corporation (Sun Nuclear), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mirion Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: MIR) (“Mirion”), today announced the release of an enhanced Cloud-hosted, SaaS option for its SunCHECK™ Quality Management Platform. Through a centralized database and single interface, the SunCHECK Platform streamlines and standardizes workflows for Radiation Therapy Quality Assurance (QA) – to reduce risk and improve Patient Safety in cancer care. The SaaS model offers scalability, security, and operational efficiencies for health systems looking to integrate and automate QA, with a comprehensive, proven solution.
As demands grow within Radiation Therapy departments, clinical and operational efficiency is essential for effective Quality Management. The SunCHECK Platform is a secure, scalable infrastructure built to meet the needs of any clinic type – from single-linac sites and large academic centers to hospitals and cancer center networks. Globally, more than 1,600 clinical users already rely on SunCHECK software for integrated, independent Quality Management of their Radiation Therapy programs.
Local management of software and servers can be burdensome, requiring capital for server hardware. Cloud-hosted, SaaS implementation of the SunCHECK Platform reduces the time and resources required for upfront deployment and ongoing support. SunCHECK users and their IT departments can be assured of reliability, redundancy, and security, with Amazon Web Services as the Cloud provider for the SunCHECK SaaS option.
“IT departments are under extreme pressure to maintain cybersecurity and ensure operational continuity. With the new SaaS model for the SunCHECK Platform, we’re dedicated to providing the most robust and secure solution possible, with built-in backup and data redundancy, plus the highest levels of data encryption, both at rest and in-transit,” noted Andy Fuller, Sun Nuclear Director of Product Management for the SunCHECK Platform. “As part of this project, we challenged our team with establishing an architecture that meets the demand for high-performance, easy implementation, and creating a pathway for highly sought-after future enhancements.”
“Already, we have seen how the SunCHECK Platform enables Radiation Therapy departments to run a standardized, efficient, and automated Quality Management program, with flexibility and customization. We’re pleased to offer this SaaS option with affordable subscription pricing and simple setup,” noted Eric Schloesser, Sun Nuclear President. “Regardless of the customer’s choice of SunCHECK implementation, via SaaS or on-premise, our SunDEPLOYS™ team is on hand to onboard new users and set them up for clinical success with the Platform.”
The SunCHECK SaaS solution can be customized to meet any clinic’s radiation oncology quality management needs and is accessed through a secure Internet connection. At this time, the SunCHECK SaaS Solution is available for new SunCHECK Platform customers in approved markets only.
The SunCHECK software will be featured, and available for demonstration, in the Sun Nuclear booth during ESTRO 2022, May 6-10, in Copenhagen, Denmark. ESTRO 2022 is the annual meeting of the European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology, with a membership base of 7,600 Radiation Oncology professionals globally.
