Imaging services provider HealthImages has bounced back from last year's sluggish imaging centermarket. The Atlanta firm reported growth in same-center MRI patientvolume, which helped the company post improving revenue and incomenumbers for the second quarter (end-June).
Revenue for the quarter was $19.9 million, up 6% from the $18.7million in the same period a year ago. Earnings jumped 110%, withnet income of $1.4 million this quarter compared to $669,000 inthe same period last year.
The improvement was led by gains in same-center MRI studies,which increased by 17.6% over the same quarter last year. TotalMRI studies increased 21%.
Health Images has pursued a business strategy of securing contractswith HMOs and other large payors on a national level and networkingwith hospitals and physicians on a local level (SCAN 2/16/94).

Breast MRI Study Examines Common Factors with False Negatives and False Positives
July 24th 2024The absence of ipsilateral breast hypervascularity is three times more likely to be associated with false-negative findings on breast MRI and non-mass enhancement lesions have a 4.5-fold likelihood of being linked to false-positive results, according to new research.
