The University of Hartford, located in West Hartford, Connecticut, is a private university known for its diverse academic programs. It enrolls approximately 6,000 students. 

Daniel DeMaio, Director of the University's Radiologic Technology program, says: "This new platform will be an exciting new resource for our radiologic technology students. The field is already highly competitive, and our students enjoy nearly 100 percent job placement within 12 months of graduation. With Sectra's education portal, we can complement time spent in the hospital with effective, interactive, digital studying ensuring that students have the experience they need to succeed." 

The contract for the Sectra Education Portal was signed during the third quarter of Sectra's 2024/2025 fiscal year and will provide the University with a realistic Sectra PACS-environment with advanced visualization and diagnostic tools, as well as a multidisciplinary library of real anatomical and clinical cases. This will allow users to study cases that mimic real-life experiences in the diagnosis, treatment planning and monitoring of a wide range of medical conditions.

"Sectra has delivered our solutions for hospital enterprise imaging in Hartford for many years, and I am now excited to extend our support to the University of Hartford. This will enable the University to effectively build classes based on fully realistic anonymized clinical cases which will lead to graduates with strong understanding of the perspectives, procedures and tools used in the clinical environment and thereby able to contribute immediately when starting their professional career," says Johan Carlegrim, President of Sectra's business unit Medical Education.

The Sectra Education Portal is a subscription-based Software-as-a-Service platform that enables learning in a fully realistic enterprise imaging environment with diagnostic and visualization tools from anywhere. The portal is used in over 60 countries for education and learning within anatomy, radiology, histopathology, traumatology, orthopedics, oncology, surgery and other specialties. The portal allows access to a large number of anonymized medical cases and images that have been collected in collaboration with Sectra's customers that can be combined with own material.
