Start a Practice
Launch your practice. We'll handle the rest.
Starting a practice used to mean servers, IT hires, and months of waiting. Sirona delivers PACS, reporting, viewer, worklist, AI, and 24/7 support on one platform, ready on day one, so even a single radiologist can launch.
How Sirona is Different
Modern from day one
Most practices inherit legacy technology — you won't. Sirona was built from first principles for cloud-native operations with pixel-powered AI, unified workflows, and automatic updates. Modern on day one means you never have to modernize.
Everything included in your practice platform
Every component a new practice needs to operate independently and grow confidently — from day one, in the cloud.
Cloud-Native PACS
Complete picture archiving and communication system. High durability, access wherever you read, no servers. Scale from one office to ten without infrastructure changes.
Explore PACSUnified Reporting
Pixel-powered, cloud-native reporter included in the platform. Radiology speech recognition, Auto-Impressions, customizable templates. Replace PowerScribe from day one.
Explore ReporterDiagnostic Viewer
Progressive image streaming over a global CDN, smart hanging protocols, and built-in MPR and 3D. Read from home or the office in Chrome — no VPN client required.
Explore ViewerAI-Ready Platform
Platform-native AI included: Auto-Impressions and Priors Summary, with relevant priors identified and pre-loaded — and Quality Assist (Coming Soon).
Explore AIManaged for You
Sirona handles security, compliance, updates, monitoring, and 24/7 support. You focus on building your practice, not managing infrastructure.
Explore Managed IT24/7 Support
Clinical support, technical support, and onboarding guidance. A partner invested in your success, not a vendor selling licenses.
Explore SupportDay one to year one
Starting a practice means doing everything at once. Sirona eliminates the entire IT category so you focus on building.
Day One
What you get on day one
A complete, unified platform — PACS, reporter, viewer, worklist, AI, high availability, an active SOC 2 Type II program, and 24/7 support. Solo radiologists have started full practices on Sirona with exactly this.
Complete unified platform ready to ingest studies
Platform-native AI included (Auto-Impressions, Priors Summary)
Diagnostic-quality viewing delivered over a global CDN
HIPAA-compliant design and an active SOC 2 Type II program built in
Onboarding by the Sirona implementation team, with a named point of contact
Go-live
How fast you're up and running
A new single-site practice can go live in a matter of weeks including training — versus the 6–12 months a legacy PACS replacement commonly takes. No on-premise setup, no servers to provision, no extended IT integration.
Integration and data migration setup
Training and workflow refinement
Go-live and ramp to full volume
Zero infrastructure setup required
Month 12+
How it grows with you
Start small and keep growing on the same platform. One radiologist becomes five. One office becomes three. Cloud-native means adding radiologists or offices doesn't require new infrastructure or new contracts.
Scale from 1 to 50+ radiologists without infrastructure changes
Expand to multiple offices and states
Add AI capabilities via platform upgrades, not new vendors
Enable teleradiology partnerships without scaling infrastructure
Nothing to re-platform as you grow
Year 1 and beyond
Your first year, without the cost curve
Every other path to a new practice strings vendors together and watches costs compound as volume grows. Sirona carries you from first read to full operation on one platform — and keeps your cost line straight while you scale.
Launch fast — reading within weeks on a complete platform
Plug into hospitals and health systems through managed, standards-based connections
Scale as fast as you hire — no added hardware, software, or IT staff
One, per-study subscription — no compounding vendor and infrastructure spend

Dr. Luke Roller: extending access to care
How a single-physician practice extends access to care in ways that weren't possible before Sirona — no IT department, no infrastructure.

“We were live on Sirona in four weeks. As any growing practice will understand, that speed wasn't a convenience — it was the business plan. There is no other radiology platform where that timeline could even have been a consideration.”
