Analogic has launched an ultrasound-based telehealth initiative following its acquisition of Oncura Partners Diagnostics.
Analogic paid $19 million for Oncura, a provider of remote, real-time ultrasound imaging and teleconsulting services currently focused on the veterinary medicine market. The new partnership will leverage Oncura's real-time remote ultrasound imaging with Analogic's technologies to serve traditional human healthcare markets.
Also, Dr. Sophie Vandebroek stepped down from Analogic's board of directors in view of her ongoing service on the board of Idexx Laboratories, which focuses on the veterinary market, to avoid any potential perceived or real conflict of interest.
