Purchase of 13 imaging centers brings cutting-edge diagnostic technology to one of Florida’s fastest-growing regions.


Jan. 7, 2026 — RadNet, Inc., a provider of high-quality, cost-effective outpatient diagnostic imaging services and developer of digital health solutions, has acquired Radiology Regional, a division of LucidHealth serving Southwest Florida.  The expansion brings RadNet’s proven operational efficiencies and leading imaging technologies to 13 locations across Naples, Cape Coral, Fort Myers, Port Charlotte and Sarasota.

In the past half-century, Radiology Regional has provided a comprehensive multi-modality offering that includes MRI, CT, PET/CT, mammography, ultrasound, X-ray and other related procedures.  Radiology Regional’s 13 locations add to five existing RadNet Florida imaging centers and contribute an estimated 400 additional employees and 44 contracted radiologists.

“RadNet is proud to enter a dynamic region of Florida and build on Radiology Regional’s well-trusted history,” said Steve Forthuber, President and CEO of Eastern Operations for RadNet. “As Florida’s population grows and ages, demand for advanced imaging services is accelerating. Through our clinical excellence, operations expertise and AI-powered digital health solutions, RadNet intends to bring accessible and affordable leading-edge patient care, population health screening programs and a focus on early detection of disease to the communities of Southwest Florida.  Among other things, we are excited to introduce and deploy within the acquired centers the comprehensive portfolio of our DeepHealth AI-powered innovations designed to increase clinical accuracy, streamline imaging processes and improve the patient experience.”  

Steve Corbeil, CEO of LucidHealth, said: “After careful consideration of the long-term success of LucidHealth and Radiology Regional, we are confident that RadNet’s acquisition creates meaningful growth opportunities for both organizations.  Together, we remain steadfast in our commitment to physician-led clinical operations and delivering exceptional patient care.  At LucidHealth, our strength lies in supporting a broad network of radiologists and healthcare partners.  This transition enables us to sharpen our strategic focus while positioning Radiology Regional for continued success in outpatient imaging services.”

Dr. Darius Biskup, Practice President at Radiology Regional, said joining RadNet “allows us to accelerate our mission – providing Southwest Florida with the highest quality diagnostic imaging services – by gaining access to clinically validated AI technologies and operational resources that will directly benefit our patients, our radiologists and our entire care team.”

The acquisition is projected to add approximately $100 million of revenue to RadNet in 2026.
