Four years down the road – We can now say institutions in Rwanda have now come to understand the importance and need of an Electronic Document Management System (EDMS) rather than a physical archive which is still widely used. Last year we told you about our outstanding EDMS projects in two of Rwanda’s important institutions (The Directorate of Immigration and Emigration and The National Public Prosecution Authority). As always we aim at satisfying our clients and providing them with the best solutions. The NPPA was so pleased with how the EDMS eased their workflow and improved their day-to-day search of documents, that they summoned us for the second time, this time to help them with their branch archives at Gasabo and Nyarugenge. The Ministry of Heath also realized that they faced a big problem when it came to their archive and approached us to help them and implement an EDMS. For those of you who are still working with a physical archive…think about it and also join our campaign, Work smarter Go Paperless! Dash-S Ventures As you well know, Dash-s is a dynamic company seeking to bring state-of- the-art technologies to Rwanda and the region. Dash-S and her partner Philips HealthCare are on the move to Install the first Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in Rwanda at King Faisal Hospital Kigali. The MRI is a medical Imaging technique used in radiology to visualize detailed internal structure and limited functions of the body.MRI provides difference between soft tissues compared to the conventional methods of imaging. SO HOW DOES THE MRI WORK? Our bodies are made of water molecules which contain hydrogen nuclei or protons so when a person goes inside the magnetic field is created by passing an electric current through the wire loops. While this is happening, other coils in the magnet send and receive radio waves. This triggers the protons in the body to align themselves. Once aligned, radio waves are absorbed by the protons, which stimulate spinning. Energy is released after “exciting” the molecules which in turn emits energy signals and generates it into an image. The final product is a 3-D image representation of the area being examined. The MRI is going to benefit King Fiasal Hospital (KFH) in a number of ways. Enabling the discovery of abnormalities that might be obscured by bone with other imaging methods Will enable the hospitals get clear images of soft tissues like the heart, liver and brain etc MRI will generally improve Radiology health care not only at KFH but also in Rwanda since it’s the first of its kind in this country New employees As the days go by, Dash-s continues to grow. It is due to the increase in our product sales & solutions implementations that decided to add more people to our staff. This year kicked off with a new Field Service Engineer, so that we can continue to provide our customers with our prompt support services. For those of you who visited us last year, you will most probably recognize a new face when greeted by our new Assistant Administrator.
