Merge, AG Mednet team to provide imaging trial management tools

Merge Healthcare and AG Mednet have partnered to develop a full suite of tools to manage imaging clinical trials worldwide.

Chicago-based Merge Healthcare will integrate its Clinical Imaging Management System (Merge CIMS) with Boston-based AG Mednet’s image collection platform to enable images and data to flow directly into Merge CIMS and data capture systems.

Merge CIMS provides real-time access to study imaging and data, and the integration will provide an end-to-end system to assemble, de-identify and deliver submissions to trial repositories.
