This year MEDICA attended the Medical Imaging Convention in Birmingham, an event that boasts an ambitious long-term plan and attracts a host of exhibitors and speakers from leading players in the imaging diagnostics industry.

The event was a success and a great opportunity for us to talk passionately about our teleradiology solutions. Following a great response from our ‘Win an iPad’ competition, we drew Harry Jeffries, a Diagnostic Radiographer at Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham, as the lucky winner from hundreds of entrants.

Finlay Garlick from the Account Management team at MEDICA, met with Harry at the Queen Elizabeth hospital and was presented with his iPad.

On accepting his prize Harry said:

“I am delighted to have won, I would love to develop my career in the future to become a reporting radiographer and I can use this iPad to help organise my CPD portfolio. It will allow me to follow the latest developments in medical imaging and to save relevant articles, thank you to all the guys at MEDICA”.
