In this episode of Medical Imaging Matters, AHRA Executive Director Jason Newmark sits down with Michael McGuire, director of strategic growth and innovation at Beekley Medical®, to dive into what practical innovation looks like in healthcare today.

Michael gives us a look at Beekley’s long history of innovation, starting with its evolution as a printing company in the 1930s to the modern medical device leader it is today, and a team that partners directly with clinicians to bring new ideas to life.

But while clinicians are often the source of the best ideas, heavy workloads and competing priorities make it difficult to move those ideas forward without the right partnerships. So what does it really take to make progress? This conversation offers a glimpse into the ways some of the most impactful innovations have come from strong partnerships that marry clinical know-how with leading-edge production expertise. 

For imaging leaders, one lesson is clear: stay curious, build relationships, and don’t be afraid to share ideas. Your next breakthrough could start with a simple conversation.
