History of ITL:
------------------------------------------
In 1995,
Dr. David Ryon envisioned the conceptual framework
of Image Technology Laboratories picture archiving
and communications system aimed at electronically
integrating the diagnostic images, modalities, and
business functions into one seamless system. When
it was discovered that commercial vendors did not
offer the products that could provide a single,
comprehensive solution, Dr. Ryon joined forces with
Mr. Lewis M. Edwards to lead the engineering of a
fully-integrated RIS/RIS product. With over 20
years experience at IBM as a senior software design
engineer and image management / network expert, Mr.
Edwards was the ideal partner to translate the
project into reality.
The
RIS/PACS
system was successfully implemented at Kingston
Diagnostic Center, the imaging center founded by Dr.
Ryon in Kingston, New York. ITL quickly realized
that there was a growing demand for a PACS system
that would automate the imaging center while
improving the radiologists productivity. Dr. Ryon
and Mr. Edwards designed a system that would not
only meet and exceed this need, but revolutionize
the digital imaging sector and enormously improve
patient care. Out of this effort, Image
Technology Laboratories, Inc. was born. In
2002, ITL launched its product rollout and continues
to generate significant interest from the medical
community.
