Lena Kauffman | | Radiology Business | Business Intelligence
San Diego-based Visage Imaging Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Pro Medicus Ltd., has signed a five-year agreement with vRad to implement the Visage 7 Enterprise Imaging Platform. Because vRad has more than 400 radiologists that read 7 million radiology studies annually, the size of the deal puts Visage Imaging “firmly on the map in the U.S. market,” said Commenting on the commercial aspects of the deal, Dr. Hupert said Sam Hupert, CEO of Visage Imaging and Pro Medicus, in a press release. “This is a key milestone for us,” he stated. The first phase of Visage implementations are planned for Diagnostic Imaging, Inc. (DII) and the New York Radiology Alliance (NYRA), both part of the vRad Alliance Network.
