enterprise imaging

Predictions are usually based less on what will come than what has been. They are projections of the recent past. That realization makes me a little bit nervous when it comes to enterprise imaging.

In recent years, intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT) has been growing in acceptance in the U.S. as an alternative to traditional external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) for patients with early-stage breast cancer. For patients meeting appropriate selection criteria, the benefits are clear — shorter treatment times, added convenience, lower costs and fewer complications.[1, 2]

“Presentism” is the idea and adherence to view current situations as inevitable and as status quo. Consider your medical imaging operations and the business requirements for further optimization and integration — they will be successful if you can chart where you are currently and navigate to the desired objective, which may or may not be enterprise imaging.

As radiation therapy continues to evolve, new techniques and technologies are largely focused on maximizing the dose to the tumor site while protecting surrounding tissue as much as possible. Image guidance is a critical component of treatment planning for tumor delineation and gauging treatment response, and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) has traditionally been the modality of choice.

The trend toward consolidation in the healthcare industry continues to climb, with U.S. hospital mergers and acquisitions at their highest since 1999.

A new Phase III clinical trial will look to evaluate if magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can replace the current standard of care to diagnose prostate cancer.

Researchers have new evidence that readily obtainable measures of the amount of glucose (sugar) consumed by the brain can directly predict a person's current level of awareness, or the likelihood that they will recover awareness within a year of a severe brain injury.

Imaging Associates is the imaging center of choice for many Alaska physicians and patients, providing a unique mix of innovative technologies and services, exam protocols and subspecialty reads in under two hours. 

A person is admitted to the hospital with a stroke, but not much is known about whether or not that patient will undergo neuroimaging.
