Have you ever needed a copy of your medical imaging to take to your doctor or another healthcare provider and received the images on a CD? Many radiologists still use this ancient format to transfer patients’ imaging files. A startup called PocketHealth has built an medical image exchange platform to digitize the process for every patient and healthcare provider, making it more intelligent and personalized, no CDs involved. PocketHealth isn’t the only company offering medical imaging sharing for patients in the MedTech space. Ambra Health, based in New York, offers solutions for medical image sharing, and EnvoyAI, based in Massachusetts, develops a medical imaging AI marketplace.

Unveiling Sony’s Latest “Digital Onboarding Credential” for Imaging Technology Resembles NFT Technology Greatly

Sony Digital Birth Certificate Large
Sony is breaking new ground in the ongoing NFTs and content authenticity saga. While it might not strictly be termed an NFT, it resembles the core concept of these non-fungible tokens. We’re collaborating with the Associated Press and other industry leaders to create a digital birth certificate for images shot on our cameras. The technology, designed to be integrated into the camera’s hardware – starting with the new Alpha 9 Mark III camera, generates a machine-based digital signature when an image is captured. So, while Sony hasn’t literally launched an in-camera NFT, they’ve certainly created a system that mirrors the core functionality of an NFT – proving ownership and authenticity in the digital space.
