“An Oregon radiology practice suffered a “significant” cyberattack over the Memorial Day weekend, according to published reports. Medford Radiology Group has retained a team of computer forensics experts to help aid in its response. The 75-year-old practice also has alerted partner organizations such as the Asante and Providence hospital systems after learning of the incident on May 26. “
““We are utilizing all available resources to offer radiology services and patient care to the extent possible while our experts and the Medford team work as quickly as possible to fully restore operations,” the practice said in a statement shared with local media outlets. “We appreciate your patience as we conduct our investigation and respond to this incident.” “
“The southern Oregon-based group said the attack had left it unable to view or report on images. Leaders were still uncertain of the full scope of the problem as of May 30, NBC noted. Medford Radiology employs about 20 physicians providing services to more than a dozen locations, according to its website. “
