Revolution in patient care: New digital clinic in the gKU district!
On July 7, 2025, the new radiology department at the gKU in Donau-Ries will be inaugurated to improve patient care through digital innovations.
Revolution in patient care: New digital clinic in the gKU district!
The Radiology Clinic at gKU was founded in September 2024, and a lot has happened in the region since then. How donau-ries-aktuell.de reports, improving patient care for the hospitals in Donauwörth, Nördlingen and Oettingen is the focus of this initiative. With chief physician Dr. With Jorden at the helm, the team relies on modern technologies to optimize the medical process.
An important step was taken in May 2025: the commissioning of a new radiology information system (RIS). This system promises a cross-hospital, fast and modern workflow in the radiology clinic. This not only improves the planning of examinations, but also creates findings much faster.
Digital innovation as the key
But what are the chances that this digital innervation will really take effect? Experience shows that digitalization in healthcare is more than just technical progress. The exchange of data between platforms, systems and medical devices is crucial to ensure the efficiency and accuracy of diagnoses. Data protection is of course a central concern here. Confidential medical information must be treated sensitively and health data should be anonymized, as shown iese.fraunhofer.de is to be read.
Implementing comprehensive security concepts is becoming increasingly important, especially given the potential threats from cyber attacks. These can have serious consequences for people's health. The EU NIS2 Directive sets new standards for cyber security in the healthcare sector and requires medical care structures and manufacturers of medical devices to take a critical look at their security measures.
A promising future
The RIS system has not only made diagnoses more efficient, but also focused on correct diagnosis before any therapy. This could, in turn, lead to better patient care, which ultimately benefits everyone. With the development of solutions for data sovereignty and control, the responsibility for the security of health data is taken seriously and specifically brought into focus.
Overall, it shows that digitalization in healthcare is a constant process that influences not only the infrastructure, but also the entire healthcare system. The advances being made at gKU provide hope for a future where technology and recommended security practices go hand in hand. What happens next remains to be seen, but one thing is clear: there are exciting times ahead for doctors, nurses and of course patients.
