The Past, Present and Future - From the President

As you may or may not realize, I will soon be completing my term as your president and will be passing the torch to John Meharg, director of information technology services at Norman, Okla.-based Norman Regional Hospital as the new president of InSight. At the moment, it seems appropriate to briefly review where we have been and the future opportunities that await InSight.
