Bayer HealthCare has announced a deal to buy Radimetrics, a privately held Toronto-based developer of radiation dose measurement software.
Radimetrics has developed eXposure, which measures patient radiation exposure over multiple imaging procedures. The software also includes quality assurance and practice improvement tools, and has the ability to manage scanner protocols.
Bayer officials said the deal is part of the company's effort to become an "end-to-end" provider of products and services for radiology customers. Radimetrics employees in Toronto and Scotland will become employees of the Bayer group in the company's Radiology & Interventional division.
![Axial images from unenhanced calcium score cardiac CT (left) and curved planar reformation images from CT angiography (right) show that higher long-term exposure to air pollution is associated with greater coronary artery calcium and more obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). Top row: Images in a 68-year-old male patient with higher 10-year mean ambient air pollution exposure (7.9 μg/m3 for particulate matter measuring ≤2.5 μm in diameter [PM2.5] and 17.4 parts per billion [ppb] for NO2) with extensive CAD (coronary artery calcium score [CACS] >1,000 and obstructive CAD [≥70% diameter stenosis]). Bottom row: Images in a 57-year-old female patient with lower 10-year mean ambient air pollution exposure (6.3 μg/m3 for PM2.5 and 4.6 ppb for NO2) with no CAD (CACS = 0 and no obstructive stenosis).](https://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/06/hanneman.r6SMLzkezo.png?auto=format%2Ccompress&fit=crop&h=100&q=70&w=100)
