ASSUTA
They do this by checking the patient ' s medical and family history and genetic tests . " Then we build a specific plan for each patient , for prevention or for screening and testing over the coming years , that enables us to detect the occurrence of the medical condition before it is becomes symptomatic . For example , a lot of different oncology patients may have some history of breast cancer or colon cancer in the family . If we know the risk of a patient , we can decide when this patient should come to Assuta and conduct different diagnostic tests , such as an MRI , mammography , different blood tests , colonoscopy or ultrasound tests . Then we can build a personally tailored screening plan according to what we learn from this ."
Accelerating collaborations as the key to achieving future clinical goals In the next few years Assuta ' s main goals are to continue driving patient-centred care and choice . " We want to give our patients the personalised care that they need , and be leaders in this approach , in Israel but also for the world . For doing so we will accelerate our collaborations with industry partners ." Dr Guindy says .
" We believe that a smooth collaboration between developers , medical teams and healthcare organisations is the key for success when developing clinical technologies . We hope that Assuta ’ s holistic combination of elements and assets , together with RISE ’ s agility and expertise , will allow our clinical workflows to be more accessible for R & D collaborations while allowing us to continue to set the standard of quality of care and patient experience for the Israeli healthcare system and for other systems around the globe .”
