Dr Lisa Sorger

The whole picture.

Consultant radiologist. Healthcare executive and medical administrator. Founder. One honest lens across preventative imaging, longevity, and the governance of medical AI — counting both sides of the ledger before the decision is made.

Portrait of Dr Lisa Sorger

Preventative medicine is neither a miracle nor a racket. The ledger has two real columns — and my work is making both of them visible.

The Work

Where my attention sits.

A few threads run through everything — the evidence hidden in imaging, the governance that keeps AI honest, and the ordinary discipline of living well and longer.

Writing

The Longevity Imaging Brief.

Evidence for healthspan, from a radiologist who reads the primary sources.

"An advocate who counts only the benefits and a critic who counts only the harms are making the same mistake — from opposite ends."

One considered briefing a month on the economics, evidence and governance of preventative imaging — written for insurers, health systems, policy teams and investors who need the signal without the sales pitch.

Alongside it, a series of longer essays: the biomarkers latent in the image, why radiology is valued by the wrong yardstick, and the case for speaking to the radiologist. Every claim sourced to the public record.

About

Clinical depth. Executive judgement. A longevity mind.

I am Dr Lisa Sorger — a consultant radiologist (FRANZCR), healthcare executive and medical administrator (AFRACMA), and company director (GAICD). Most recently I was Chief Medical Officer of Integral Diagnostics (ASX: IDX), an ASX-listed diagnostic imaging group with a national network of radiologists across more than 140 sites, where I sat on the senior executive and reported to the CEO and Board on clinical governance, quality, risk and AI strategy. Today I am founder and managing director of myRadiologist, a regulated digital telereporting platform, and Medical Director for Prenuvo Australia — the first dedicated whole-body MRI preventative imaging service launched outside North America.

My career has run through the reading room, the executive suite and the boardroom — I have carried the clinical risk, built the governance, and led successful MSAC funding applications that created new reimbursement for the imaging sector. My work sits where preventative imaging, health economics and the governance of medical AI meet, and I am a recognised national voice on who holds the risk when machines read first. I read the primary sources myself, and I will always tell you the strongest argument against my own view. That honesty is the whole point.
