  • 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.

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.

Tebra

  • No pricing amounts published; custom quote required based on practice configuration
  • Pricing based on per-provider licensing model with additional costs for EPCS setup and PDMP integration

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Sectra: Does Sectra include diagnostic AI?

No. Sectra Amplifier is a marketplace and orchestration layer for third party algorithms, each licensed and validated separately.

Tebra: How does Tebra's pricing model work?

Pricing is based on the number of clinical providers rather than user seats. Non-clinical staff get unlimited access at no additional cost. Low-volume providers billing under 100 claims monthly receive lower-tier pricing.

Source
Sectra: Is pathology really on the same platform as radiology?

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

Tebra: What are the setup and integration costs beyond the monthly fee?

Electronic Prescribing Controlled Substances (EPCS) setup costs approximately $75 per provider as a one-time fee. PDMP integration costs $500 one-time per facility plus approximately $50 per user per year.

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.

Tebra: Are there volume discounts for practices using multiple modules?

Yes, bundled pricing and volume incentives are available for multi-module adoption. Practices can request a personalized quote to see potential savings.

Source
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.

Tebra: Does Tebra offer published pricing or is a quote always required?

Tebra does not publish specific monthly costs. Pricing varies depending on the number of providers, platform features needed, and implementation requirements. A personalized quote is required to get pricing.
