Mark Wheeler, Matt, and crew have done it again.
He and a crew of medical experts have produced a well designed, practical med bag for all front line medics. I got my hands on one courtesy of Matt and gave it a go the last week or so. Here it is on the CP Gear website:

First, the outside:
The bag is small. Its only about 16 x 12 x 5 inches (41cm tall x 31cm wide x 12cm deep) in size. The straps are adjustable and work well with almost any armour/LBV rig you can possibly have on. And its got 6x 2 rows of MOLLE weave on the edges, and bottom and 6 x 6 rows along the front, allowing you to add on modular pouches to kit out whatever. The MOLLE loops at the bottom will allow you to slide a couple straps through it to carry a light stretcher (like a Foxtrot) or a compression sack of your own gear. The rigorous double zipper is covered over by a flap protecting it from wet or dust. The best thing about this nice small bag is that it can fit smoothly into the Small Pack or be strapped on the outside. I carried it easily inside a 3 day patrol pack style backpack. It will also seamless fit inside most rucks and without any problem between the valise and ruck of the 64 pattern. I also had no trouble fitting it comfortably to my back. The adjustable shoulder straps allow you to go from bare back to full armour with plates without any fuss. And the best thing about the shoulder straps is that they are also completely removeable. To top it off, there are 2 grab handles on top of the bag for those times when you are working and have to run in a hurry.
With the MOLLE on the front and sides, its easy to attach a Nalgene bottle holder, hydration pouch, mag pouches or what ever your heart desires. I am sure Matt can set you up with what they sell.
edit- the ruler is 18 inches long.
