The acquisition brings UltraLinQ’s cloud PACS and cardiac monitoring solutions under Core Sound Imaging’s Studycast platform as part of a strategic growth initiative.
Core Sound Imaging, the company behind the Studycast medical imaging workflow platform, has announced the acquisition of UltraLinQ Healthcare Solutions, a provider of cloud-based PACS and cardiac monitoring solutions. According to the company, the platform expansion is part of a strategic initiative to consolidate imaging solutions under a single platform.
The acquisition combines two established platforms in the cloud-based medical imaging sector. Studycast, known for its scalable imaging workflow, will now support a broader base of healthcare providers, from small practices to large hospital networks.
“We’ve long admired UltraLinQ’s commitment to the same tenets as Core Sound Imaging: delivering some of the most advanced, dependable, and user-friendly imaging experience in the industry,” says Lindsey Klein, CEO of Core Sound Imaging, in a release. “This acquisition allows us to further solidify that promise to our customers and the market.”
Platform Integration and New Features
Following the acquisition, UltraLinQ customers will gain access to Studycast’s advanced features, including seamless integration across EMRs and modalities, access to AI-enhanced diagnostic tools, and workflow automation tools designed to improve turnaround times.
“UltraLinQ prioritizes simplicity, reliability, and customer support,” says Theo Vouniseas, UltraLinQ chief operations officer, in a release. “Joining forces with Studycast allows us to elevate that mission by offering our customers a more powerful platform without compromising on the values they trust.”
The move follows an $80 million growth investment Core Sound Imaging received in 2024 from PSG, a growth equity firm focused on software and technology-enabled services organizations. The company’s Studycast system is currently used in 49 US states and seven countries, while UltraLinQ serves more than 70,000 users across over 8,000 locations.
