The integration adds new imaging and workflow features for users of GE HealthCare systems and MIM Encore software.
GE HealthCare has announced the integration of its proprietary algorithms and features with MIM Encore, a platform developed by MIM Software, aimed at improving digital imaging and streamlining clinical workflows.
The implementation offers new capabilities for healthcare providers using GE HealthCare systems and MIM software. Built using clinician feedback, MIM Encore is designed as a unified platform to support diagnostic accuracy, operational efficiency, and personalized care planning.
“In today’s rapidly evolving healthcare landscape, operational efficiency and seamless collaboration are not just goals—they’re the cornerstone to success. That’s why we aim to provide tools that can help enhance providers’ confidence in decision making and support patients in receiving personalized care,” says Jean-Luc Procaccini, president and CEO of molecular imaging and computed tomography at GE HealthCare, in a release.
Expanded Capabilities for MIM and GE HealthCare Users
MIM Encore now includes post-processing tools developed for GE HealthCare systems, aiming to support consistent image quality and reduce manual steps in nuclear medicine and cardiology workflows. The platform combines features such as automated read preparation, structured reporting, and flexible interpretation tools for PET/CT, SPECT/CT, and multi-modality fusion in one system.
According to the company, the integration is intended to support accurate diagnoses and more consistent communication across clinical teams.
“Customers are telling us that this pairing is exactly what users have been looking for. The combined solution enables streamlined, accurate reading of images, supports quantitative analysis out of the box, and helps eliminate manual entries,” says Andrew Nelson, CEO of MIM Software, a GE HealthCare company, in a release.
MIM Encore includes resolution recovery and image-enhancement features tailored to GE HealthCare scanners, with the goal of improving workflow and diagnostic consistency across specialties:
- Oncology: The platform supports configurable enhancements for SPECT imaging, including resolution recovery, attenuation and scatter correction, advanced filtering, and motion correction. It also allows for dynamic and static scan viewing, image sharing, and quantitation tools.
- Cardiology: Cardiac imaging is supported by PET and SPECT tools offering motion correction, automated quality checks, and displays intended to streamline cardiac assessments. The platform also supports key radiotracers and incorporates algorithms such as Evolution for Cardiac, developed at Johns Hopkins and the University of North Carolina.
- Neurology: MIM Encore includes tools for 3D rendering and reconstruction in neurodegenerative imaging, designed to produce consistent, high-quality images and assist in diagnosis and treatment planning.
GE HealthCare’s Effortless Workflow also integrates with MIM Encore, with features intended to simplify interface navigation, reduce manual input, and help manage increasing patient volumes.
GE HealthCare acquired MIM Software in 2024 to combine strengths in multi-modality imaging, quantitation, automation, and molecular imaging.
