This two-phase project will first focus on a pilot phase aimed at demonstrating to Tanner clinical staff how SnapshotNIR enhances clinical workflows and supports wound treatment. This phase will also focus on enabling clinicians to upload SnapshotNIR images directly into patient charts. In the post-pilot phase, Healthliant and Kent Imaging will work toward enhanced integration for seamless image uploads into Epic’s electronic health record (EHR) software, optimizing care documentation and clinical efficiency.
“From a clinical perspective, it was exciting to see physicians and medical staff quickly incorporate information from SnapshotNIR into their decision-making and care planning,” said Christine Shettel, RN, vice president of clinical services at Kent Imaging. “This led to expedited referrals — such as for vascular surgery — and also provided confirmation when treatment plans were effective. With continued clinical support and training, we expect these positive outcomes to grow even further.”

SnapshotNIR delivers real-time, non-invasive tissue oxygenation imaging, equipping clinicians with critical visual information to enhance wound care, vascular assessments and surgical decision-making.
“We’re excited to partner with Healthliant Ventures and Tanner Health to bring the power of SnapshotNIR into the clinical environment,” said Pierre Lemire, CEO of Kent Imaging. “This collaboration highlights how real-time tissue oxygenation imaging can be embedded into existing workflows to support more informed, ethical and efficient care. By delivering objective data directly into the EHR, we’re enabling clinicians to justify treatments, document decisions accurately and ultimately improve patient outcomes.”
“Partnering with Kent Imaging on SnapshotNIR illustrates our commitment to bringing advanced imaging technologies into everyday clinical practice,” said Steve West, managing director of Healthliant Ventures. “This pilot underscores our ability to deepen clinical workflows, help clinicians access better data and ultimately deliver improved patient outcomes.”
