ImageAssist Launches Loupe™ and the Model Store, Adding Objective Before-and-After Analysis to Clinical Photography and Aesthetic Medicine

NASHVILLE, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct 16, 2026--

ImageAssist, the HIPAA-compliant clinical photography platform incubated at Vanderbilt Health, today announced Loupe™, an AI analysis workspace, and the Model Store, a library of AI models that run inside it. In Loupe™, a clinician opens a patient's photos, runs a model or asks a question in plain language, much like using a chat assistant. The Model Store launches with two models: Face Nexus, a before-and-after facial analysis model developed by Dr. Orr Shauly of Emory University School of Medicine, and Cipher, a privacy model that removes protected health information (PHI) from photo sets, built by a team at Vanderbilt Health.

ImageAssist already helps practices and health systems capture standardized photos, organize them, compare results, simulate procedures, use them for patient education and marketing, and file them to the patient chart through integrations with more than eight EMR systems. Loupe™ adds the next step: analysis. Face Nexus gives clinicians a consistent, measurable view of change to review with the patient. Clinicians can also ask Loupe™ questions about a patient's photos in plain language, in a chat-style interface inside the same HIPAA-compliant platform.

Show patients what changed, with numbers behind it

Face Nexus analyzes before-and-after photos to quantify visible change in facial age and wrinkles between visits. For medspas and aesthetic practices, that means a consultation conversation built on objective results rather than memory or a good angle. Cipher removes identifying information from images so photo sets can be shared and used for training and research with privacy built in.

Loupe™ runs inside ImageAssist's HIPAA-compliant, SOC 2 Type II environment, so practices review and analyze photos where they already store them, with no exports and no second tool.

A Model Store built to grow

The Model Store works like an app store for clinical visual models. As new models are added, the same photos a practice captures today can support new ways to engage patients and measure outcomes across dentistry, dermatology, vein care, wound care, plastic surgery and medical aesthetics. ImageAssist expects to add models for more areas of the face and body, including lips, breast and dental analysis, over time.

The models available at launch support aesthetic analysis and privacy. They are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease or condition, and Loupe™ supports clinical judgment; it does not replace it.

Model as a service: two ways to partner

ImageAssist is also announcing its model-as-a-service program:

"Practices already take photos at every visit, and most of that value sits unused," said Jonathan Sadlowe, CEO of ImageAssist. "Loupe™ lets a clinician look closer at those photos and show a patient an objective, side-by-side view of their result. That builds trust in the room and supports the consults and follow-up visits that grow a practice. The Model Store is how we keep adding to it, with models built by the clinicians who know the work best."

"Patients want to know a treatment worked, and clinicians want a way to show it that doesn't rest on memory," said Dr. Orr Shauly, developer of Face Nexus, and Administrative Chief Plastic Surgery Resident at Emory University. "Face Nexus gives a consistent, measurable view of change between visits. Loupe™ gives it a home inside the workflow clinicians already use for their photos, so more patients can see their results clearly."

Availability

Loupe™ and the Model Store are available now to ImageAssist customers. Model and data partners can apply at imageassist.com/partner. ImageAssist will be at Plastic Surgery The Meeting in Houston, Oct. 16–18, Booth 1115.

LONDON (AP) — Cam Little is confident Harry Kane has the skill to become an NFL kicker.

But the hard part for Kane, the Jacksonville Jaguars kicker said, would be shifting from star striker to bit player.

“I think the transition from soccer to football is so much more cultural than like the actual skill,” Little said.

The England captain and Bayern Munich forward has mused over the years about one day kicking in the NFL. He recently floated the idea of combining his NFL goal with also joining a Major League Soccer team.

Who better to weigh in than Little? The soccer player-turned kicker, who remains a diehard Manchester United fan, booted a 57-yard field goal as time expired for the Jags to defeat the Philadelphia Eagles 19-17 last Sunday at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. He also holds the record for longest NFL field goal — 68 yards.

“It’s just so different,” Little told The Associated Press of moving from being involved in a game for 90 minutes to being a kicker “sitting there on the sidelines the whole game.

“You’re not going to get on the ball, and you don’t have the same moxie, I guess, because he is a star striker for the team. So that moxie is just kind of put to the side. You’ve got to let everyone else do the big man’s job, and then you’re out there just to back everyone up basically.”

As far as Kane's ability, “he’s probably talented enough to do it... His technique in soccer is so good. But it’s just such a different mental, I’d say, challenge than soccer.

“It’d be like him taking five set pieces a day. And he’s got to deliver on all five set pieces, or you didn’t do your job for the day,” Little said Thursday after practice at the team's accommodations north of London in Watford.

“So, it’s just a lot different, but I don’t think he doesn’t have the talent level for it. I think he probably has the skill to do it.”

Little and the Jaguars remained in London this week ahead of the game against the Houston Texans on Sunday at Wembley Stadium.

Little, a sixth-round draft pick from Arkansas in 2024, had missed an extra-point attempt — after a high snap from fill-in long snapper DaVon Hamilton — late in the fourth quarter against the Eagles. The miss had looked crucial because Philadelphia then took a 17-16 lead with just 8 seconds left — before the improbable ending on Little’s heroics.

“Missing a set piece or missing a wide-open goal, you see a lot of strikers do that, and they’ll come back and put the game away,” Little said at his post-game press conference while wearing a Man United jersey. “I’ve got to have short-term memory and be at my best when the best is required.”

Little told AP that he’d be attending Fulham’s home game against Hull at Craven Cottage on Saturday. Jaguars owner Shad Khan also owns the Premier League club.

Little, an Oklahoma native, played as a midfielder before switching to American football in high school. England and United great Wayne Rooney was his favorite player.

“Maybe one day I’ll get to meet him or do a jersey swap with him. That’s my goal,” he said. "I’ve never been to Manchester. Only London, but I’m hoping to make it there this offseason.”
