MayTay was founded in mid-2008 by Gordon McNeilly in order to provide software consultancy services and products for the Interpretation of Medical Data. MayTay's aim is to understand medical workflows, and clinical purpose of the workflows, in order to design an appropriate user interface into which the right technology can be applied. This aim is based on a confidence that the technologies that exist currently can be used to provide good solutions to many medical workflow problems, even though they cannot be used to provide perfect solutions. A good example of this exists in the PACS workstation arena where the large amounts of data that need to be transferred often, with many current software applications, stops people from working for a significant percentage of an examination time, while the application is unresponsive (although it may provide a progress bar to somewhat ameliorate the rage of the user). This simply need not be the case.
So, MayTay's simple aim is not to give in to the tempations of that old adage where perfection becomes the enemy of good, by understanding how people work, and letting them do just that, with tecnologies that currently exist, just better deployed or implemented.
and hand: 
. The idea for the name comes from the observation
that medicine, for a cerebral profession, is also a hands-on one. Unlike many forms of engineering, doctors actually implement the
things they design. Thus, the concept of the the hand doing what the eye (observation and thinking) mandates. Also, it so happens
that I think the common English phrase hand to eye coordination is the wrong way round : surely it is the eye coordinating
the hand? And the logo is just meant to look like some sort of living being - eye and hand coming together to make a creature !
