Sectra showcases MCP-powered AI innovations to accelerate enterprise imaging at HIMSS

International medical imaging IT and cybersecurity company Sectra will showcase AI-driven solutions and Model Context Protocol (MCP)-powered prototypes at HIMSS 2026 designed to automate workflows and reduce operational complexity. By focusing on system consolidation, interoperability, seamless AI integration, and built-in multi-specialty reporting capabilities, Sectra's solutions accelerate diagnostics, reduce costs, and ease physician workload - enabling faster and better diagnoses.

Sectra will demonstrate MCP, an emerging open standard gaining traction across industries, designed to simplify how AI integrates across enterprise imaging and integrated diagnostics, including genomics. The solution opens the door to a new paradigm for interfacing in medical IT.  

By leveraging MCP to power AI-driven interactions and interfaces, Sectra can automate workflows such as modality configuration, user role management, data analysis, and integration setup. This streamlines IT operations, reduces risk, and frees up resources to focus on patient-centered care.

"The future of enterprise imaging isn't about navigating deeper into configuration screens. It's about telling your system what you need and having autonomous agents make it happen: workflow logic, reading lists, site configurations, user provisioning, all in plain language, all executed securely and instantly. That's not a better interface. That's an entirely new operating model for healthcare IT," says Fredrik Gustavsson, CTO at Sectra Imaging IT Solutions.

 "At HIMSS, our Operations AI prototype powered by MCP offers an early look at what this means in practice: consistency and scalability across environments without the overhead, and AI that empowers clinical and operational teams to work smarter."
