Hamburg, 10/08/2015 | Press Release | Medical Systems Technology partnership with NEXUS/E&L

“By collaborating with the specialist provider E&L, which is part of the Nexus AG company group, our customers benefit from our extensive experience in endoscopic documentation and from the technological expertise of the software provider. We can now feed this know-how into our documentation systems step by step,” says Frank Drewalowski, Managing Director Medical Systems at Olympus Europa SE & CO. KG. ENDOBASE is a documentation system capable of being fully integrated into existing IT environments in hospitals. This enables all endoscopic information to be bundled together centrally, allowing the software to support in all areas of a modern endoscopy department and improving workflows for doctors and nursing staff.
