A major digital transformation is underway as James Paget University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust moves its imaging operations to Sectra One Cloud. Supported by Sectra, this transition strengthens patient data security while delivering a scalable and future-ready enterprise imaging environment.
The move reflects a broader shift among UK NHS trusts toward secure cloud infrastructure that supports high-quality patient care while reducing IT complexity.
Strengthening Patient Data Security in the Cloud
Security remains a top priority for NHS organizations handling sensitive medical data. By adopting Sectra One Cloud, James Paget NHS Trust enhances protection around patient imaging records while ensuring compliance with strict healthcare data standards.
Cloud-based infrastructure also offers:
-

Reduced reliance on on-premises IT systems
With Sectra managing infrastructure, maintenance, and upgrades, the trust can ease pressure on internal IT teams while maintaining high performance and secure daily operations.
Scalable Enterprise Imaging for Growing Demands
James Paget University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, based in Great Yarmouth, serves approximately 250,000 residents across Norfolk and north-east Suffolk. Initially, the trust will implement radiology and breast imaging modules through the fully managed cloud service.
Sectra’s enterprise imaging solution provides a unified strategy for medical imaging across departments. Built with a Vendor Neutral Archive (VNA) at its core, the modular system allows healthcare providers to expand from department to department and across entire enterprises.
As healthcare demands evolve, the cloud-based imaging platform ensures scalability without compromising reliability or clinical efficiency.
Five-Year Agreement Secures Long-Term Innovation
The five-year contract for Sectra One Cloud was signed in the third quarter of Sectra’s 2025/2026 fiscal year. The total order value amounts to approximately GBP 2.8 million, with GBP 1.8 million guaranteed.
This long-term partnership demonstrates the trust’s commitment to modernizing imaging services while maintaining secure, high-quality patient care.
Enabling High-Quality Care Through Cloud Innovation
By transitioning to Sectra One Cloud, James Paget NHS Trust positions itself for sustainable digital growth. The move reduces IT complexity, enhances cybersecurity, and supports seamless imaging workflows for clinicians.
As more NHS organizations adopt cloud-based enterprise imaging solutions, secure and scalable infrastructure will continue to play a vital role in delivering efficient, patient-centered healthcare across the UK.
