LOS ANGELES, CA and PERTH, WESTERN AUSTRALIA--(Marketwire - Jun 1, 2011) - MMRGlobal, Inc. (
Vistime is a multi-file format, real-time 3D viewer for retrieval and viewing of large files, including medical imaging systems such as MRIs, scans and sonograms, over any Internet connection, including dial-up. The system allows physicians and patients to view and discuss medical records including radiology images in an online meeting format, making MMR's MyMedicalRecords one of the world's most functional Personal Health Records systems that allows collaboration of multiple specialists in real time.
MMR will also integrate the Visi platform into its offerings on a global basis. The VisiInc technology will enable MMR users to render and distribute large multi-dimensional visual files within the MMR interface, including digital medical media such as MRI and CAD files at lightning-fast speed without any resolution degradation or enterprise infrastructure barrier regardless of Internet connection, including dial-up ("Vistime," www.vistime.com).
Jacques Blandin, Chief Executive Officer and Founder of VisiInc PLC, said, "Vistime is the world's easiest to use multi-file format, real-time 3D viewer for powerful collaboration of medical records, including radiological images, using Visi rapid visual rendering capabilities. Working with MMR, our plan is to offer a MyMedicalRecords Personal Health Record globally. VisiInc will offer the product in Australia through its subsidiary Firmware Technologies. Integrating the Visi technology with the MMR PHR will allow consumers anywhere to simultaneously view and explore Personal Health Records including multi-dimensional data visualizations of any file type of any size, in real-time."
"When I was a kid growing up watching Star Trek, I never thought I would be one of the first to disassemble and reassemble data as if it was coming from the transporter room of the Spaceship Enterprise. Transporting complex giant-sized imagery to help save lives represents a breakthrough in eHealth. The Visi MMR relationship responds to that agenda and can represent the beginning of a next generation of Personal Health Management Systems for consumers and healthcare professionals," stated Robert H. Lorsch, Chairman and CEO of MMRGlobal, Inc.
Integration of the Visi platform is a powerful and positive response to the government criteria set for the future of ehealth in Australia. Moreover, Personal Health Records represent the ultimate patient delivery point in telemedicine which is designed to help reduce the cost of healthcare by enabling patients to be cared for in their homes. Last month, MMRGlobal announced that it is working with Alcatel-Lucent to integrate the MyMedicalRecords Personal Health Record with Alcatel-Lucent's TeleHealth Manager solution to simplify the collection and notification of vital health records. The Visi agreement can give MMR and Visi the backbone of the modern day information highway to communicate and view these files.
Jacques Blandin also stated, "Vistime was developed so that engineers, geologists, filmmakers, physicists, healthcare professionals and others can see and work with "elephant-sized" visual files, for the first time anywhere, and collaborate on them with peers to save time, money, and save lives."
