The New York, cloud-based clinical research solutions team Medidata ($MDSO) has acquired the Cincinnati, OH-headquartered Intelemage as it looks to expand its medical imaging services. Medidata will integrate Intelemages technology into its Clinical Cloud program, offering customers what it calls "an end-to-end solution to capture, manage and analyze medical imaging data." Founded in 2007, Intelemage uses medical image file sharing in clinical trials as well as for hospitals, doctors, life science companies, research institutions and core labs. The company also provides tools for medical imaging data capture and workflow management. This follows a spate of deals for Medidata that includes tie-ups with Apples ($AAPL) ResearchKit and broadening its geographical reach with a recent collaboration in South Korea. Financial details of the Intelemage deal were not disclosed. Release
