He also was co-founder of LightLab Imaging, which commercialized a new diagnostic-imaging method called optical coherence tomography (OCT), and was sold in 2002.

The following years, Miller ran the Business Development function for Healthcare and later managed the Business Unit Health Services of Siemens Healthcare (form.
