GE HealthCare has entered into an agreement to acquire MIM Software, a provider of artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled image analysis and workflow tools across multiple care areas, including oncology, urology, neurology, and cardiology

GE HealthCare expects to leverage MIM Software’s imaging analytics and digital workflow capabilities across various care areas to accelerate innovation and differentiate its solutions for the benefit of patients and healthcare systems around the world, the company says in a press release.

MIM Software’s portfolio of innovative imaging solutions provides a variety of beneficial features, including: the integration of diagnostic images from multiple modalities into treatment plans; automation to help reduce repetitive tasks and manual interventions; quantitation and advanced processing in diagnostic imaging and nuclear medicine to help determine therapy response; and a platform to assist with Theranostics imaging and dosimetry.

GE HealthCare expects to integrate MIM Software solutions into its advanced visualisation offerings to facilitate AI-based segmentation and contouring as well as dosimetry analysis for patients across their treatment journeys and in the growing fields of radiology, molecular imaging, and radiation oncology.

“We are committed to providing comprehensive, connected devices and digital solutions that enable providers to improve patient care across multiple specialties,” says Peter Arduini, president & CEO of GE HealthCare. “We expect our efforts to bring these two complementary organisations and innovative product portfolios together to strengthen our capabilities as a leading provider of integrated imaging systems, analytics, and advanced digital workflows across several care areas and pathways – including Theranostics, radiation oncology, urology, neurology and cardiology. Now and in the future, we are working to transform patient care.”

“We are excited by the prospect of joining GE HealthCare and thrilled to share this exciting news,” adds Andrew Nelson, CEO of MIM Software. “Over the past two decades, we have worked to develop innovative vendor agnostic products and deliver quality services to earn the trust of our customers—this will not change. As a part of GE HealthCare, we anticipate developing new and increasingly integrated digital solutions to meet our customers’ most complex and pressing needs, today and into the future. Together, we will build upon our shared legacies of enhancing patient care.”

Founded in 2003, MIM Software is headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio, with additional offices in China and Belgium. The consummation of the transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals. Financial details of the transaction have not been disclosed publicly.
