Who We Are
lifeIMAGE believes that timely access to medical information is critical to making faster and better decisions about patient care. It saves lives and money. Through a cloud-based network that connects physicians, hospitals and patients, lifeIMAGE is unleashing the collaborative power of diagnostic imaging and other medical information.
lifeIMAGE allows diagnostic images to be sent, received and opened wherever they are needed. With technology that is easy-to-deploy, secure and established, our platform offers solutions for everyone– whether it’s a hospital that needs a better way to intake CDs, a radiology department looking for more efficient ways to send information to referring physician, or a patient sending imaging to a specialist in another state. lifeIMAGE has been adopted by over 50 leading medical centers in the United States and was recognized by The Wall Street Journal as part of its 2010 international Technology Innovation Awards.
The U.S. healthcare system wastefully spends $10-15 billion each year on redundant radiological exams that stem from a provider’s lack of access to patients’ prior imaging exams. Though most diagnostic exams are already available in standard electronic formats, a void exists in the sharing of existing imaging data. By filling that void, the healthcare system can save billions of dollars, eliminate needless exposure to patient radiation, and significantly reduce medical errors.

Our founders, management team, board of directors and clinical advisory members are all veterans of the healthcare IT industry. Our customer list is a snapshot of the most prestigious healthcare providers consisting of academic medical centers, oncology centers of excellence, trauma centers and children’s hospitals that have all tapped into our network for more efficient exchange of imaging information.
