History

Pro Medicus Limited was co-founded in 1983 by Dr Sam Hupert, a Monash University Medical School graduate who began general practice in 1980, and Anthony Hall, who became the principal architect and developer of the company's core software systems. Dr Hupert left general practice in late 1984 to manage the group full time, recognizing the potential for computers in medicine. The company was listed on the Australian Securities Exchange in 2000, and Dr Hupert led it as Managing Director and CEO through a period of strong earnings growth until October 2007, when he stepped down to become Deputy Chairman and an Executive Director. He resumed the CEO role in October 2010. Over the decades, Pro Medicus expanded from its Australian base into a global provider of radiology informatics. Its Visage Imaging subsidiary became central to its international business, particularly in the United States and Europe. The company developed the Visage product line, including Visage 7 for advanced visualization, Visage RIS for radiology information management, and Visage Ease and Visage Ease Pro for mobile access. These products are marketed as an integrated RIS/PACS solution for imaging centres, community hospitals and large enterprises. In 2008, Peter Kempen joined the board as a director, and in August 2010 he became Chairman. Dr Malte Westerhoff serves as General Manager-Europe and Global Chief Technology Officer, overseeing product strategy and research and development for Pro Medicus and Visage Imaging. Danny Tauber, who joined the company in 1993, became General Manager-Australia in January 2011. The company continues to report full-year results and exhibit at major industry events such as RSNA, maintaining its position as a listed healthcare technology company.
