Kodak Teams With StorageTek Behind the Scenes to Capture Images
During ATHENS 2004 Olympic Games
Storage Leaders Work Day and Night to Store and Archive Medical Images
LOUISVILLE, Colo., Nov. 30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- As the ATHENS 2004
Olympic Games fade into memory, it's time to sing the praises of the unsung
heroes. While the athletes were fulfilling lifelong dreams on the Olympics
stage, a crew behind the scenes in Athens and Milan were busy caring for the
athletes.
Almost 2,000 medical and dental imaging exams were performed using Kodak
equipment during the Games. State-of-the-art digital imaging and information
systems from Kodak, Official Sponsor of the ATHENS 2004 Olympic Games, enabled
images of injured athletes to be sent to medical specialists in an offsite
location in seconds. All of this critical information was stored and archived
on equipment provided by Kodak Health Imaging Division, a StorageTek partner,
to allow healthcare organizations to store, retrieve and secure digital images
and information.
"StorageTek is a highly valued partner for Kodak's Health Imaging business and
engages with us on a variety of programs, and we especially appreciated the
data management services and support that StorageTek provided for our
Polyclinic program during the ATHENS 2004 Olympic Games," said Gregory Walker,
director and division vice president, Alliance, Presence & Multicultural
Marketing, Eastman Kodak Company.
StorageTek(R) (Storage Technology Corporation, NYSE: STK), the leading provider
of enterprise information lifecycle management, supplied Kodak with
StorageTek's D-series(TM) disk storage system and an L-series(TM) tape library,
which were installed directly at the Athens Olympic Polyclinic where Kodak set
up its standard imaging system, PACS System V.
Kodak Healthcare chose StorageTek as a partner for the ATHENS 2004 Olympic
Games because of the companies' long-standing relationship aimed at providing
storage solutions to healthcare facilities and StorageTek's leadership in
working with PACS vendors to serve the medical community.
Walker explained that StorageTek provided "a tape library for our PACS system,
memory banks for our RAID system and drivers for our PACS, and duplicated
several of these same services in our Milan remote storage archives. In
addition, they provided all of the consumables for the tape library and high
storage discs, along with technical support for our Athens and Milan
locations."
"All of this support was critically important to the effective implementation
of our diagnostic imaging services in the Polyclinic, where over 1,400
examinations were conducted during the Games," Walker said.
"StorageTek, through its partnership with Kodak, understands the complex needs
of healthcare providers and offers a complete information lifecycle management
solution to store and archive medical images in an efficient and secure
manner," said Gary Zasman, StorageTek director of information lifecycle
management solutions. "We were proud to team up with Kodak at the Olympic
Games to serve the needs of our partners."
