Diagnostic Imaging International Corp. (DIIG) provides leading edge, virtual, remote radiology technology (teleradiology) services through its wholly owned subsidiary, Canadian Teleradiology Services Inc. (“CTS”). Teleradiology services are delivered accurately and on a timely basis to clients, including individuals, physicians, workers compensation boards and insurance companies.

CTS has provided teleradiology services in North America for three largest service contract. The contract covers three public hospitals, which CTS supplies with remote reading and reporting, covering imaging modalities such as MRI, CT, X-Ray, and Ultrasound.

The Company plans to open and/or acquire diagnostic imaging clinics in Canada and the United States, which will provide related services to individuals, workers compensation boards, private insurance companies, and persons not covered by government insurance programs. DIIG anticipates building a network of private clinics that will provide teleradiology services on a worldwide basis, and expects to be operating three groups of private clinics (some clinics may have multiple locations) that will together generate approximately $30 million in annualized revenues by year-end 2014. either Florida or New York.

Investment Highlights Sizable Market Opportunity Canada’s current public MRI delivery model is not meeting the needs of many Canadians. Waiting lists are long, basis, Canada lags behind many other industrialized nations. The Canadian Institute for Health Information found that Canada has 4.6 MRI scanners per million citizens, while Japan and the United States have much higher coverage at 35.3 per million and 19.5 per million, respectively. The median for the industrialized countries is 6.1 MRI scanners per million citizens. The institute report also noted that despite repeated promises from both federal and provincial governments to reduce patient wait times, wait times are increasing in Canada. In 2003, Canadians waited on average 47 days for non-emergency MRIs, up from 39 days in 2001.

Canada’s healthcare system will likely evolve into a system similar to what is available in Sweden or Germany, with a mix of private and public health delivery and almost non-existent waiting lists. Private MRI clinics now represent 10% of the Canadian market, where demand for MRI diagnostic imaging is forecast to grow 6% annually over the next decade.

Plans to build a network of private MRI clinics in Canada The Company plans to build a network of private diagnostic clinics, primarily in Canada, and is actively pursuDIIG anticipates adding Computed Tomography scan equipment to those facilities and evaluate future opportunities for Positron Emission Tomography clinics.

CTS acquisition lays groundwork for network With the acquisition of CTS, the Company has begun to implement its network plans. The acquisition allowed the Company to enter the North American imaging market in Q1 09, and provides a solid base for expanding its business. CTS generated revenues exceeding $0.8 million in 2008; management expects revenues to double in 2009.

New agreements expand client base and revenues In April 2009, CTS secured contracts to supply teleradiology services to 10 additional hospitals in Ontario. Night time and weekend service has already begun, and early feedback from the hospitals has been very positive. With these new contracts, CTS expects to double monthly study

Strong revenue growth outlook DIIG anticipates providing teleradiology services on a worldwide basis and operating a network of private clinics in North America, and has the goal of generating $30 million in annualized revenues by year-end 2014. Over the coverage expansion agreements already announced, we expect the Company to increase revenues to a $1.9 million range in 2009 and $4.5 million in 2010.

Business Model The Company provides teleradiology services to healthcare facilities and providers whose own workload is inologists. DIIG focuses on the North American marketplace, and especially on Canada, where the radiologist-topopulation ratio is 1:18,000, as compared to a ratio of 1:8,000 in the United States. In addition, the Company plans to provide MRI reading services to hospitals and clinics in the Middle East and around the world.

In March 2009, DIIG completed the acquisition of Canadian Teleradiology Services (CTS), a provider of remote teleradiology service to hospitals, clinics and physician practices. These services are provided 24- hours-a-day, seven-days-a-week. Using telecommunications links, physicians are able to submit and receive diagnostic imaging interpretations nights, days and weekends. CTS receives image scans from hospitals and clinics, and transmits

CTS’ open source system is compatible with existing DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) equipment, PACS (Picture Archival and Communications Systems) and teleradiology systems. Equipment costs for CTS partners are minimal. In some cases, CTS provides the necessary equipment to its partners at no charge, including on-site equipment necessary to facilitate HIPPA-compliant transmissions to the Company data center.

Healthcare in Canada Healthcare spending in Canada reached $160 billion, or 10.6% of GDP, in 2007. Canada’s healthcare spending was forecast to climb to $171.9 billion, or $5,170 per person, in 2008. Hospitals account for the largest segment in spending at $48.1 billion; however, their share is declining.

In Canada, the government pays about 71 % of Canadians’ healthcare costs, which is slightly below the OECD average. Under the terms of the Canada Health Act, publicly funded insurance plans are required to pay for medically necessary care, but only if it is delivered in hospitals or by physicians. There is considerable variation across the provinces/territories regarding the extent to which costs for outpatient prescription drugs, physical Diagnostic Imaging International Corp.

therapy, long-term care, home care, dental care and even ambulance services are covered.

Canada has a federally sponsored, publicly funded Medicare system, with most services provided by the private sector. Canada’s system is known as a single payer system, where basic services are provided by private doctors.

Doctors receive a fee per visit. These rates are negotiated between the provincial government and the province medical associations, usually on an annual basis. A physician cannot charge a fee higher than the negotiated rate, even to patients who are not covered by the publicly funded system, unless the physician opts out of billing the publicly funded system. Pharmaceutical reimbursements are set at a global median cost by government price controls. Other areas of health care, such as dentistry and optometry, are wholly private.

Complaints about Canadian Healthcare

poor and funding is either inadequate or poorly allocated. There is widespread public dissatisfaction with long wait times.

Wait times are especially long for consulting a specialist, elective surgery (such as a hip replacement), imaging procedures (such as MRI or Cystoscopy), and specialized treatments (such as radiation for breast cancer). Studies by the Commonwealth Fund found that 57% of Canadians reported waiting four weeks or more to see a specialist; 24% of Canadians waited four hours or more in the emergency room.

According to the Fraser Institute, treatment time from initial referral by a GP through consultation with a specialweeks in 20052. The Canadian government has invested $5.5 billion in addressing the wait time problem. Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper announced in 2007 that all 10 provinces and three territories would establish patient wait time guarantees by 2010. The intent is to guarantee timely access to healthcare in at least one of the following priority areas, prioritized by each province: cancer care, hip and knee replacement, cardiac care, diagnostic imaging, cataract surgeries or primary care.

According to the National Review of Medicine, the need for diagnostic imaging is growing 6% per year, but most lion earmarked for diagnostic imaging equipment under former Prime Minister Jean Chretien, wait times are long because there are not enough radiologists to run Medicare-funded MRI scanners for more than a few hours a day.

Widespread dissatisfaction with wait times, especially for diagnostic imaging, has helped make healthcare the number one pre-election issue among 80% of Canadian voters.

The Fraser Institute study indicated that Canada had 151 MRI scanners at the beginning of 2004, up from 144 in 2003. The report also revealed that the number of CT scanners has risen to 338 from 234. In terms of MRI availability to patients, Canada ranked 19th out of 25 countries, just ahead of Luxembourg, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Greece, Poland and Mexico. Canada had 4.6 MRI scanners per million people, while Japan and the United States had 35.3 and 19.5 per million, respectively. Despite repeated promises from both federal and provincial governments to reduce patient wait times, wait times appear to have increased nationwide. In 2003, Canadians waited on average 47 days for non-emergency MRIs, up from 39 days in 2001. The CIHI report noted that, while more high-tech imaging machines are available, there are not enough medical imaging professionals to operate the technology and read the diagnostic results.

novative in delivering service. The medical community asserts that greater savings will be realized in terms of a more productive and healthier population resulting from more timely diagnosis and treatment. Also, greater utilization of the equipment will result in lower operating costs.

The provinces are unlikely to agree that MRI should become an insured health service under a new Canada Health Act. Proponents of a two-tiered system argue that a parallel private MRI system will make more funds and resources available on a per capita basis for the public system. It is estimated that private MRI clinics now represent 10% of the market.

Financial Analysis

DIIG has only recently begun revenue-generating operations. During Q1 09, the Company acquired Canadian Teleradiology Services. Q1 09 revenues totaled $94,439. This amount represents only revenues generated by CTS between March 2nd and March 31st as required by SEC accounting rules.

Cost of sales during Q1 09 was $76,564 and represents costs incurred by CTS between March 2nd and March 31st. General and administrative expenses for same period were $67,074. We expect the Company’s expenses to increase as DIIG ramps up CTS services and builds its clinic network.

Multiplying our 2010 EPS estimate by a 15.5 times forward Price/Earnings multiple, we derive a 12-month price target for DIIG of $0.78. This price target assumes one clinic acquisition in 2009. If the Company completes more acquisitions in 2009 and 2010, revenues, EPS and our price target would likely adjust upward. We are initiating coverage of Diagnostic Imaging International Corp. with a Speculative Buy rating and a near-term $0.78 price target. However, we strongly advise investors to consider the risk factors mentioned below since the Company faces many challenges in building its network.

Investment Risks Inherent business risks

progress may be negatively by the following: 1) failure to secure new contracts or renew existing contracts; 2) inregulation; (4) increased competition; (5) unfavorable litigation outcomes; and 6) a very competitive and rapidly changing operating environment.

Highly regulated business The Company is subject to extensive regulation by the Canadian government, provinces and territories. To open a clinic, it must be licensed by the Ministry of Health and sanctioned by the College of Physicians and Surgeons in the province where the clinic is located.

If DIIG’s operations are found to be in violation of any laws and regulations, it may be subject to civil and crimimany of these laws and regulations have not been fully interpreted by regulatory authorities or the courts, and their provisions are open to a variety of interpretations.

Intense competition The medical equipment and clinical diagnostic sectors are highly competitive. There are many companies, both public and private, engaged in diagnostics-related sales, including a number of well-known pharmaceutical and chemical companies. Many of these companies have substantially greater capital resources and larger marketing and distribution infrastructures than DIIG. There is no assurance that DIIG can compete successfully.

Need for additional funding The Company has incurred losses from operations and has minimum cash, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. DIIG needs to secure additional capital to implement its business plan.

At this stage of its development where operations are minimal, management believes DIIG will be able to obtain ever, the Company’s working capital requirements will increase exponentially.
