Block Imaging International announced on Tuesday that Josh Block will be succeeding his father, Bruce, as president of the global company -- a Michigan-based buyer and seller of refurbished medical imaging equipment, parts and services.

According to Block, Bruce had been preparing to transition the day-to-day operations of the company and will assume the chairman role with oversight of both Block Imaging International and Block Imaging Parts and Service.

For the past five years, Block served as Imaging Solutions' vice president, a position that will now be filled by Josh Nunez. Prior to Block Imaging, he was president of Emerging Investments, a service company in Muncie, Indiana.

Moving forward, Block says that as president, he will oversee strategic initiatives and strive to improve the way in which the company serves its customers.

"We have a talented team of people," he says, referring to the employees of Block Imaging International. "I'm humbled and excited to maximize the collective talent and ensure we are moving in the same direction."
