Sixteen vendors offering diagnostic imaging software have signed service agreements with the Australian Digital Health Agency (ADHA) to connect to the My Health Record, including major players Agfa, Carestream, Intellirad, Telstra Health's Medinexus and publicly listed Pro Medicus.

The agency says the vendors will begin building connectivity into their systems over the next few months and by the end of 2018, private radiology practices will be able to upload diagnostic imaging reports to their patients' My Health Record.
