Here's what to expect this week on Diagnostic Imaging.
In this week’s preview, here are some highlights of what you can expect to see coming soon on Diagnostic Imaging:
As the holidays and New Year approach, there is more end-of-year coverage to come. This week, look for a review of the most important things in ultrasound this year. Diagnostic Imaging spoke with Frost & Sullivan analysts Srikanth Kompalli and Suresh Kuppuswamy about the most significant developments during the year.

Insights from this year’s RSNA are still coming despite the meeting’s end roughly two weeks ago. This week, look for a video interview with Diane Strollo, M.D., visiting associate professor of cardiothoracic surgery at the University of Pittsburgh, about the importance of non-interpretive skills in the daily practice of radiology. She shared not only the benefit of these skills, but the dangers that exist if providers do not invest in them.
