The short version

  • Each has a real cost: ChiroTouch chiroTouch does not publish specific pricing amounts on their website; Sectra sectra does not make scanners, so it cannot cross-subsidise software against modality hardware the way an integrated manufacturer can, and it often loses on headline price in a bundled tender.
  • They diverge on capability: ChiroTouch covers Practice Management, Sectra covers Sectra IDS7.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

ChiroTouch

  • ChiroTouch does not publish specific pricing amounts on their website
  • Three tiers exist (Start, Grow, Scale) but prices are not displayed
  • Company directs customers to book a demo or call 800.852.1771 for pricing details
  • Optional add-ons (CT Pay, CT Billing Suite, CT SmartFit) have unknown pricing
  • All ChiroTouch plans include AI features and unlimited support but cost comparison requires direct contact

Sectra

  • Sectra does not make scanners, so it cannot cross-subsidise software against modality hardware the way an integrated manufacturer can, and it often loses on headline price in a bundled tender.
  • Diagnostic AI is not built in house; Amplifier orchestrates third party algorithms, so the algorithms themselves need separate licences, separate clinical validation and separate information governance sign off.
  • Sectra One Cloud is priced against a committed annual study volume, and organisations whose imaging activity grows faster than forecast meet overage charges partway through the term.
  • The pathology module assumes you have already solved slide scanning and laboratory workflow, which is the larger and more expensive part of digitising histopathology and is not in Sectra scope.
  • Depth of Epic and Oracle Health integration varies by region and by which modules you buy, so a reference site in Sweden is a weak predictor of what integration will cost a United States buyer.

Yes, the pathology module uses the same archive and workflow engine, which is the main reason buyers digitising histopathology shortlist Sectra.

ChiroTouch: Are there add-ons available for ChiroTouch?

Yes, ChiroTouch offers optional add-ons including CT Pay (payment processing), CT Billing Suite (insurance billing), and CT SmartFit (exercise programs). Pricing for these add-ons is not disclosed and requires contacting ChiroTouch directly.

Source
Sectra: How is Sectra One Cloud priced?

On committed annual study volume plus the modules selected, as a subscription rather than a capital purchase. The vendor does not publish rates.

Sectra: Is Sectra CE marked and FDA cleared?

The diagnostic viewing software carries CE marking under the medical device regulation and FDA 510(k) clearance for diagnostic interpretation, but the exact cleared indications differ per module and per market, so confirm for pathology specifically.
