What Centrelake Imaging & Oncology does

Centrelake Imaging & Oncology is a privately held, physician-founded outpatient diagnostic radiology network operating eleven facilities across Southern California, with a twelfth site in Montebello announced as coming soon. Founded in 2006 in Ontario, California, the company provides a comprehensive menu of imaging services including 3.0T MRI, High Field Open MRI, CT/CTA, GE Discovery PET/CT, Digital Mammography, Nuclear Medicine, Echocardiography, Ultrasound/Vascular Studies, DEXA bone density testing, and Digital X-ray, and operates three AAAASF-accredited Vascular and Interventional Centers for minimally invasive image-guided procedures such as dialysis access management, biopsies, angioplasty, and varicose vein treatment. All diagnostic modalities carry American College of Radiology (ACR) accreditation.

The network is differentiated operationally by AI-enabled imaging capabilities — SubtleHD™ (FDA-cleared MRI acceleration from Subtle Medical, reducing scan times by approximately 41%) and SecondReadAI™ (FDA-cleared, 510K mammography interpretation using Lunit INSIGHT, reporting a 15% improvement in early-stage cancer detection) — paired with a digital infrastructure spanning a HIPAA-compliant Rezolut patient portal, an EXA zero-footprint physician portal (transitioned from Ramsoft PowerReader), and DICOM-based provider-to-provider image sharing.

Commercially, Centrelake generates fee-for-service revenue from insurance billing (HMO, PPO, POS, Medicare, Medi-Cal, Workers' Compensation) across 108 contracted health plans, supplemented by discounted self-pay rates with a price-match guarantee and unit-priced self-pay AI add-ons ($75 per SecondReadAI™ study). The customer base is distributed across individual patients acquired via 6,300 referring physicians or direct online scheduling, with walk-in X-ray serving as a low-friction acquisition channel. Marketing is built on physician referral relationships, the corporate website, social media (Facebook, Instagram), and Google Business reviews.

Core offering

Centrelake Imaging & Oncology operates 11 ACR-accredited outpatient radiology centers in Southern California delivering a full range of diagnostic imaging studies (MRI, CT, PET/CT, digital mammography, ultrasound, nuclear medicine, echocardiography, digital X-ray, DEXA) along with minimally invasive image-guided vascular and interventional procedures. The company layers AI-enhanced services on top of these modalities, including SubtleHD™ for faster MRI scans and SecondReadAI™ (Lunit INSIGHT) for mammography interpretation, serving individual patients referred by physicians or self-scheduled online.

Product overview

Centrelake Imaging & Oncology operates as an integrated network of eleven outpatient radiology facilities across Southern California, offering a comprehensive portfolio of diagnostic imaging services. The core offering includes traditional imaging modalities (PET/CT, MRI/MRA, CT/CTA, Digital X-Ray, Digital Mammography, Nuclear Medicine, Ultrasound, Echocardiography, Bone Density/DEXA) alongside specialized Vascular & Interventional Centers for minimally invasive procedures. The company differentiates through AI-enhanced services including SubtleHD™ MRI (which accelerates scans by ~41% while improving image quality) and SecondReadAI™ (AI-assisted mammography interpretation using Lunit INSIGHT technology for early breast cancer detection). All facilities are ACR-accredited, with select Vascular & Interventional Centers holding AAAASF accreditation.

Products and services

• PET/CT Imaging Combined Positron Emission Tomography and Computed Tomography scan using GE Discovery technology to examine internal organs, tissues, and bones together with metabolic function in a single 60-minute scan, delivering both metabolic and anatomic information. Available at Downey, Ontario, and Hemet (coming soon).
• MRI/MRA Magnetic Resonance Imaging and MR Angiography using strong magnets and radio waves to provide detailed diagnostic images of internal organs, tissues, and blood vessels without radiation, available across multiple Centrelake locations.
• 3.0T MRI High-field 3.0 Tesla MRI scanner offering faster, higher-resolution scans with greater imaging capability and shorter examination times, available at the Anaheim and Hemet locations.

Directly competes with Centrelake across modalities, geography (heavy SoCal presence), and AI strategy, but at significantly larger scale.
• Touchstone Imaging: Touchstone Imaging operates outpatient imaging centers across multiple US states offering MRI, CT, ultrasound, X-ray, and mammography. Comparable regional multi-site imaging model with physician-referral GTM, though broader geographic footprint than Centrelake.
• Outpatient Imaging Affiliates: Outpatient Imaging Affiliates develops and operates joint-venture outpatient imaging centers in partnership with hospitals and health systems. Comparable outpatient radiology operating model with similar modality mix and physician-referral acquisition strategy.
• Solis Mammography (Solis Health): Solis Mammography is the largest independent US mammography-only network, with significant Texas and expanding national presence. Direct overlap with Centrelake's digital mammography and SecondReadAI offering; comparable on AI-enhanced breast imaging strategy and DTC channel.
• Center for Diagnostic Imaging (CDI): CDI operates outpatient imaging centers across the US providing MRI, CT, PET/CT, mammography, and interventional services. Direct comparable on multi-modality outpatient imaging, payer contracting, and physician-referral economics.
