In a recent video interview, Arun Krishnaraj, MD, MPH and David Larson, MD, MBA, discussed the continued use of physical media to transport medical images between different health-care facilities, resulting inefficiencies and delays with patient care, and the initiative to create a linked multi-hub model to end this dated practice once and for all.

The retrospective study, which involved nearly 1,000 patients with COVID-19, found that a high initial chest radiograph severity score was an independent risk factor for intrathoracic complications.

A recent multicenter study of BoneView AI noted a significant increase in sensitivity for fracture detection on X-rays and decreases in reading time for radiographs.

The portability and durability of the device may make it an emerging option for bedside imaging.

In an exclusive video interview with Diagnostic Imaging, Josh Cooper, vice president of congressional affairs for the American College of Radiology (ACR), and Thomas Hoffman, vice president of legal for the ACR, discuss the ACR’s lawsuit over the IDR process of the No Surprises Act and the potential impact of the law on reimbursement and patient access to care.

As a potential complement to intraoperative X-rays, the imaging software may be beneficial for short-segment spine procedures performed in outpatient or ambulatory surgery centers.

Essential factors range from dosing considerations and image quality to workflow efficiency and cost-effectiveness.

While current projections suggest a shortage of radiologists in the future, promising developments with radiology residency positions, medical student awareness of the field and AI-aided efficiencies could be game changers.
