Upload Your Images

Henry Ford Health offers patients and healthcare providers a secure mode to send their medical imaging to our radiologists and other providers digitally via lifeIMAGE.

lifeIMAGE is a HIPAA-compliant technology platform. Simply upload your own medical images, or the medical images of your patient to lifeIMAGE and they will be securely delivered for review.

Sending images prior to an appointment allows our physicians to start establishing a treatment plan before a patient’s appointment. Healthcare providers may also share images for a second opinion or a second read request.
