Millions of imaging studies are created each year, yet few medical images are ever viewed outside the imaging center or radiology office. With Visualize FREE, physicians and patients can easily access data from CT, MRI and other medical imaging procedures. FiatLux Imaging has released Visualize FREE to begin building a user community and gain valuable user input that will help in the final design and launch of its larger online development project.

About FiatLux Imaging
FiatLux Imaging sees a major evolution taking place in the field of medicine. Advances in internet and software technologies are allowing the development and deployment of software and services that are creating dramatic and beneficial changes in the healthcare field, in a similar way that computer-aided design (CAD) software and related services revolutionized the fields of design, engineering and architecture.
The company is initially using these technologies for the development and launch of comprehensive software-based services for the transport, review, analysis, storage and sharing of medical imaging studies, creating the first integrated system for access to, and use of, these studies by the worldwide healthcare community including the 800,000 physicians and 3 million healthcare workers in the U.S. These new services that will enable broad access to, and better use of, medical imaging studies by the specialty physicians, general practitioners and other healthcare professionals, who need to review, analyze and share these studies. The current lack of tools and services to effectively make use of imaging studies for treatment planning and patient education costs the healthcare system hundreds of millions of dollars in repeat imaging, inefficient or unsuccessful surgeries and patient lawsuits.
FiatLux Imaging, Inc. is a privately held company based in Redmond, Washington.
