Horizon Cardiology

A CVIS Meets all Your Cardiac Department Needs

Horizon Cardiology™, a cardiovascular imaging and information system (CVIS) from McKesson, enables you to improve quality of care, boost efficiencies and reduce costs while increasing physician and staff satisfaction. The system supports cardiac and peripheral catheterization, hemodynamics monitoring, echocardiography, vascular ultrasound, nuclear cardiology and ECG management.

The unique parallel workflows of Horizon Cardiology bring together the clinical information required for better and safer decisions in patient care.

The key to creating such a powerful system is integration and a singular platform. The Horizon Cardiology CVIS uses the most advanced industry standards to deliver comprehensive integration capabilities. By leveraging these standards, the cardiology department becomes fully integrated with other hospital systems including radiology RIS/PACS, inventory, billing, orders, work lists and registry submission modules.
