Medical imaging services
Scan.com was founded nearly five years ago by clinicians Khalid Latief and Jasper Nissim. The couple started the startup because they were fed up with the inefficiencies their patients were experiencing during the diagnostic process. Initially launched as a side project, Scan.com joined CEO Charlie Bullock, COO Oliver Knight and front-end designer Joe Daniels as co-founders in 2019.
Medical imaging methods play an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases. Methods such as computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, mammography and ultrasonography enable detailed imaging of the body or a region. This allows doctors to diagnose patients accurately and direct them to the most appropriate treatment methods. Therefore, medical imaging techniques are one of the most effective tools of modern medicine and are of great importance in the detection and treatment of patients' health problems.
Making medical imaging accessible
Scan.com offers an appointment booking engine for UK and US patients, a portal for doctors and an API for digital health partners. The company delivers results in as little as one week. It aims to streamline imaging, reduce waiting times and improve patient care outcomes. Following a successful pilot program, Scan.com has built a network of more than 50 imaging centers. In the first five weeks of its US launch in February 2023, it grew its annual revenue to $1 million.
