Logical Images Awarded GSA Schedule 70 Contract:
GSA Contract Streamlines Procurement of VisualDx for Organizations Utilizing Federal Funds

Rochester, NY - November 15, 2006 - Logical Images, a developer of software that helps clinicians make faster and more accurate diagnoses of visually identifiable conditions, today announced that its clinical decision support software system, VisualDx, is now listed on United States GSA Schedule 70 for Information Technology products and services. The General Services Administration is the central management agency that sets federal policy for federal procurement of real property and information resources management.

The five-year contract will streamline the acquisition and installation process for customers using federal funds to procure VisualDx. Hospitals, clinics, military installations, and research facilities authorized to purchase from the GSA schedule will now be able to quickly and easily use federal allocations to acquire VisualDx.

"Securing VisualDx placement on the GSA Schedule was a rigorous process," said Art Papier, Chief Scientific Officer of Logical Images. "Its listing is a testament to the usefulness of the software as a diagnostic tool. The GSA contract will simplify procurement for hospitals and clinics using federal funds across the nation. We're looking forward to helping doctors and nurses at a growing number of both private and public organizations quickly and accurately diagnose patients with visually identifiable conditions."

Installed in over 350 sites in 20 states, VisualDx is a comprehensive resource for the diagnosis of visually identifiable diseases. By merging medical imaging with clinical information, VisualDx provides a technologically advanced approach to point-of-care decision making and disease recognition. Health care professionals can enter observations, symptoms, patient medical histories and test results and then compare the patient's visual or radiological presentation side-by-side with images of possible diagnoses. To date, VisualDx contains more than 13,000 professionally photographed medical images organized in 18 discrete modules including acute pulmonary infections; neonate and infant dermatological conditions; rashes, growths and lesions in adult and pediatric patients; drug eruptions; oral lesions and growths; terrorism recognition; international travel; and female and male genital rashes and growths.

The GSA Schedule Contact Number is GS-35F-0093T with access innovations awarded to two SIN's: 132-32 for Term Software Licenses and 132-34 for Software Maintenance.
