Healthy data exchange

Adlershof's solutions in medical engineering

Information and telecommunications technology is also adopting an ever greater role in health care – and not least of all because new diagnostics and therapies generate huge amounts of data. Adlershof companies provide solutions for reliable and innovative data processing in medical engineering.

Markets are undergoing radical changes, economic prospects are uncertain – yet medical engineering is standing its ground in the face of these perils. This should come as no surprise, for the world population is growing older and medical care is undergoing continuous improvement, with German companies as the engines of innovation. In the process, information technology is increasingly becoming the focus of attention.

Modern technologies like imaging processes enhance the precision of diagnoses, but generate “an ever greater deluge of medical data”, according to Roman Rosenkranz, Managing Director of Conworx Technology GmbH. This Adlershof company specialises in networking and data management for laboratory and medical equipment. “Our solutions provide health organisations with practical aids in recording, bundling, and supplying patient data to medical specialists for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes,” explained Rosenkranz. Conworx develops, markets, and supervises the relevant software solutions for over 600 customers in fourteen European nations.

This medical IT provider is considered to be the European leader in its field. Also the Adlershof company Crystal Photonics has advanced to a local market leader in its niche of nuclear medicine. This was made possible by Managing Director Klaus Schwenkenbecher with high precision gamma probe systems used primarily in the treatment of breast cancer. These small probes can trace diseased tissue in the sentinel lymph nodes by detecting weakly radioactive material injected previously. This can verify whether and how the cancer has spread, increasing the precision of surgery. Thanks to this method, women with breast cancer now no longer need to have all lymph nodes removed as a precautionary measure against the spread of tumours. This too relies on data processing in real time.

The pharmaceutical industry has long acknowledged the absolute necessity of adapted IT solutions. For twenty years, the Adlershof company scarabTEC GmbH, named after the sacred beetle of Ancient Egypt, has been developing special applications for these sectors. Managing Directors Manuel Drösler, Offer Dattner, and Andreas Suchanek are pursuing their target “to augment reliability and cost effectiveness in the production of medicines and biochemical productions”.

The development of the Science and Technology Park Berlin Adlershof was and is co-financed by the European Union namely by EFRE. This concerns infrastructure development like construction of technology centres. Furthermore EFRE is used for international projects.
