Feature | Clinical Decision Support | Dave Fornell
Clinical decision support (CDS) software has been discussed for years as a way to help clinicians follow best practice guidelines and to help eliminate unnecessary tests or procedures. However, implementing these systems has been slow, partly due to their cost and complexity, and partly due to pushback from physicians. But a new chapter is about to open for CDS as healthcare reform will soon require implementation of these systems.

Feature | Proton Therapy | Dave Fornell
As proton therapy becomes more widely available, imaging for the development of proton treatment plans will become more commonplace. However, there are major differences in how treatment is planned for proton therapy compared to traditional radiation therapy. While anatomical imaging is the main focus in radiation therapy, proton therapy requires highly calibrated computed tomography (CT) datasets that are used to directly compute a highly technical treatment plan.
