Salt Lake City, UT – October 12, 2008 - VisualShare receives Phase II SBIR award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to develop web-based Telehealth applications for child abuse medical diagnosis.
The award VisualShare wins a Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) National Institute for Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) to develop the web-based image informatics solution TeleCAM™ for peer review and quality assurance in child abuse medicine.
