ImageInbox will help patients to electronically send and receive full-resolution medical images, necessary for healthcare providers to take key treatment decisions.
NexGenic said that the technology encrypts and transfers medical images between provider and patient in seconds, eliminating the time, cost and hassle of physically retrieving.
NexGenic co-founder and CEO Stephan Erberich said the images are the center of major treatment decisions.
"The ability to provide those images safely and confidently to medical personnel should be in the hands of patients who may need to do so at a moment’s notice," Erberich added.
"The cost for healthcare providers to utilize ImageInbox is drastically lower than the costs generally budgeted by medical professionals and facilities for imaging records sharing," elaborated Erberich."
NexGenic noted that it doesn’t store or has access to the patient’s protected health information in compliance with security and regulatory requirements.
