Revenue increased, but so did losses for medical imaging software vendor AMICAS Inc. during the first quarter of 2008.
The Boston-based vendor of radiology information systems, picture archiving and communications systems, and accompanying applications and services had a net loss of $467,000, compared with net income of $146,000 in the first quarter a year ago.
Quarterly revenue rose 3% to $12.8 million. The company ended the quarter with cash and equivalents of $72 million and no long-term debt. AMICAS is succeeding in getting new customers even as hospitals struggle with reduced Medicare reimbursement for diagnostic imaging procedures, says Stephen Kahane, M.D., president, CEO and chair.
