TeraMedica inks agreement with I2m

TeraMedica has signed an agreement with Australian-based Intelligent Image Management (I2m) that authorizes I2m to license TeraMedica's Intelligent Image Manager (TI2m) in Australia and South Asia and re-sell TI2m software to healthcare providers in the region.

TI2m is an enterprise archive software system designed to capture data from imaging devices or picture archiving and communication systems (PACS), store the digital images, and make them available for delivery to the point of patient care across the healthcare enterprise.

Additionally, TeraMedica said it has authorized I2m to re-sell TI2m software to individual healthcare providers who may participate in a government managed image management initiative or most likely set up independent data management centers.
