Our Vision

Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Computerized Axial Tomography, and other Radiologic Services are slowly reaching the mature stage of the business cycle. Notwithstanding, opportunities still bound in this high tech sector of the medical imaging arena. We believe the following:

• We are in an environment still conducive to expanded outpatient diagnostic services. An aging population in combination with new technology will insure the need for additional services.
• All projects need a "hook". While important, demographic and need assessment alone are not enough to warrant a project. There must be a strategic relationship formed that insures a certain volume of scans. This relationship can be in the form of an existing medical practice, a hospital, a key physician group, or radiologist.
• For the next few years, we are in a highly competitive and commercial environment. Conventional MRI and other diagnostic services are accepted standards of care in any medical practice and the available volume of procedures cannot be increased due to education. We must therefore offer a better product, a better service, and market aggressively to change referral patterns from one entity to another.
• There are technological changes occurring that will create an entirely different and expanded market. We believe this market will include cardiac MRI, computerized angiography, and ultra high speed CT which will feature virtual colonoscopy, lung screening, heart calcium scoring and whole body imaging. Our company will be poised to move in these directions when the technology is truly available and reimbursable.

Our goal is to develop and establish two to three outpatients medical imaging ventures per year for the next 4 to 5 years. MRI, High speed CT, Conventional X-ray, Mammography, Nuclear Medicine, and Interventional Radiology will be featured in assorted combinations in each of these facilities. These imaging ventures will take many forms, including sole ownership, joint ventures, and development and management agreements.
