lifeIMAGE has launched its lifeIMAGE Connections, which allows physicians, patients, and hospitals to create network profiles, search for one another, and form one-time or persistent associations in order to securely exchange medical information.

lifeIMAGE Connections employs simple and social workflow to connect people in real- time to send or receive imaging information. Physicians, patients, and imaging service providers can connect to sources of imaging data on CDs, remote PACS networks, scanners, or electronic health records. According to the software company, the new solution will drive better, less expensive patient care by preventing unnecessary imaging exams, and will also foster a new level of collaboration on imaging that will escalate the value and scope of radiology in health care delivery.
