NantWorks, a newly formed healthcare, educational, scientific and communications technology company led by Patrick Soon-Shiong, MD, has acquired Ziosoft.

Under the agreement, Ziosoft, a Redwood City, Calif.-based developer of 4D and 5D medical imaging functional analytics, will be wholly owned by Los Angeles-based NantWorks.

Ziosoft will be renamed Qi Imaging--referring to the “Quantitative Intelligent” image data that is generated from 5th dimensional imaging, as well as referring to the Chinese understanding of the life force. The name Ziosoft will be retained in Japan.
