East River Medical Imaging

What East River Medical Imaging does

East River Medical Imaging (legal name East River Medical Imaging, PC; DBA "ERMI") is an independent, privately held diagnostic radiology practice founded in 1970 and headquartered on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. It operates four outpatient imaging centers — three in Manhattan (East River offices at 515/519/523 East 72nd Street, Sutton Place at 430 East 59th Street, and Yorkville at 424 East 89th Street) and one in White Plains, Westchester County. The practice is staffed by 10 board-certified, fellowship-trained subspecialty radiologists and 101-250 total employees, holding ACR MRI accreditation, ACR Designated Comprehensive Breast Imaging Center status, and MQSA certification.

The practice delivers a comprehensive imaging and image-guided therapy portfolio: MRI (GE 1.5T and 3T, open, extremity, and wide-bore configurations), CT including the GE Revolution Apex scanner with Cardiac CT and AI-augmented coronary analysis (Cleerly, HeartFlow FFRCT), PET/CT with multiple tracers (FDG, NaF, Amyvid, Axumin, Illuccix), Women's Imaging (3D tomosynthesis mammography, breast MRI, breast ultrasound, biopsy), Ultrasound, X-Ray and Fluoroscopy, Interventional Radiology, Bone Densitometry, Whole Body MRI screening, and Theranostics (PLUVICTO therapy using the first GE StarGuide SPECT/CT in the tri-state area). AI tooling is integrated across modalities for computer vision and predictive analytics, and the practice partners with BAMF RadioNexus as a clinical trial site for radiopharmaceutical research.

ERMI generates revenue primarily through fee-for-service diagnostic imaging billed to patient insurance, supplemented by a self-pay elective Full Body MRI screening at $2,475, professional services revenue from theranostics treatments (PLUVICTO) and radiopharmaceutical clinical trials via BAMF RadioNexus. Customer acquisition is dual-channel: physician referrals cultivated by a dedicated physician liaison network covering NYC, Westchester, NJ, and CT, alongside direct-to-consumer channels including online self-scheduling through the Royal Solutions Group platform, a patient portal, content marketing, and elective screening marketing. The practice maintains academic appointments with NewYork-Presbyterian and Weill Cornell Medical College, and its Manhattan offices are co-located with referral feeders including HSS and Memorial Sloan Kettering.

Direct peers

• RadNet: RadNet is the largest outpatient imaging network in the US, and following its acquisition of Lenox Hill Radiology it is the dominant multi-modality imaging operator in Manhattan. ERMI competes directly with RadNet/Lenox Hill for referring physicians, patients, and payer contracts in the same NYC geography.
• RAYUS Radiology: RAYUS Radiology is a national network of subspecialized outpatient imaging centers offering MRI, CT, and advanced diagnostic services, with an emphasis on quality and AI-enabled workflows. It is comparable to ERMI in its subspecialist, multi-modality operating model.
• DRA Imaging (Diagnostic Radiology Associates): DRA Imaging is a multi-site outpatient radiology group operating in the New York metro, providing MRI, CT, ultrasound, and women's imaging services. It competes with ERMI for referrals and patients in the same regional market with a similar independent-practice model.
• New York Imaging Specialists: New York Imaging Specialists is a physician-owned, multi-modality outpatient imaging practice serving the NYC metro with MRI, CT, PET/CT, and women's imaging. It is a direct independent peer to ERMI in the same geography and modality mix.
• Zwanger-Pesiri Radiology: Zwanger-Pesiri is one of the largest private radiology groups in the New York metro, offering MRI, CT, PET/CT, women's imaging, and interventional services across Long Island, NYC, and Westchester. It is a direct competitor in the same regional market and modality mix as ERMI.

Broad incumbents

• Akumin: Akumin operates a national network of outpatient imaging centers offering MRI, CT, PET/CT, ultrasound, and related diagnostic services. It competes with ERMI on the same modalities and serves overlapping payor and referrer relationships, but at significantly broader geographic scale.
• SimonMed Imaging: SimonMed is one of the largest outpatient imaging networks in the US, offering MRI, CT, ultrasound, mammography, and advanced AI-augmented diagnostics across many states. As a multi-state incumbent, it represents a similar multi-modality, AI-enabled operating model at much larger scale.
• US Radiology Specialists: US Radiology Specialists is a national partnership platform of subspecialized radiology practices offering multi-modality outpatient imaging. Its physician-led, technology-enabled model closely mirrors ERMI's subspecialist approach, but at network scale across multiple states.
• Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (Radiology): MSK's Department of Radiology is a leading academic oncologic imaging program located adjacent to ERMI's Manhattan offices. While focused on cancer imaging, MSK represents both a major referral source and a competitive incumbent for oncology and theranostics imaging in the same market.
• NewYork-Presbyterian / Weill Cornell Radiology: The radiology departments of NewYork-Presbyterian and Weill Cornell are major in-hospital imaging providers in the same Upper East Side market as ERMI. They compete for complex imaging referrals, though as part of a broader hospital system rather than a standalone outpatient practice.
