Integrated Informatics

It seems like everything has gone virtual recently - from regular meetings, to education, and now virtual conferences. In this episode editor in chief of AuntMinnie.com, Brian Casey, joins us to discuss his experiences at a variety of recent virtual meetings and provides some tips for both exhibitors and attendees on how to get the most out of them.

Want to know the secret to boosting Radiologist efficiency and productivity? While technology certainly plays an important role, perhaps even more impactful are the ergonomic considerations of the reading environment itself. Ensuring Radiologists can effectively process an ever-increasing volume of images and information requires careful design of the visual, auditory, and physical conditions within which Radiologists are working. No one knows this better than ergonomics expert Greg Patrick of RedRick Technologies, who in this episode discusses the most common ergonomics mistakes made by Radiologists, and strategies to improve their comfort, efficiency, and most importantly their overall health. 

Val Kapitula, cardiovascular expert and partner at Paragon Consulting Partners, joins us to explore the topic of integrating Cardiovascular imaging and information systems into broader enterprise imaging solutions. Using examples from a variety of health system procurement and deployment projects, as well as industry and technical best practices, Val provides valuable advice for organizations to successfully consolidate non-invasive and invasive Cardiovascular imaging and data into their diagnostic imaging ecosystem. 

Virtual encounters are playing can increasingly important role in healthcare delivery - especially recently. Dr. Jeff Soble, Associate Professor at Rush University Health System and co-founder and CEO of ASCEND Healthcare Information Technology joins us to discuss the importance of real-time collaboration in Cardiovascular care and how technology is evolving to better facilitate tele-presence in ICUs, interventional and surgical suites, and other care environments across ambulatory and acute care settings. 

AI holds great promise for augmenting diagnostic imaging workflow - but what does it take to deploy AI into clinical practice? In this episode we interview Brad Genereaux, Medical Imaging Alliance Manager at NVIDIA and leading authority on enterprise imaging interoperability, to discuss the intricacies of integrating AI into imaging workflow, how IHE is driving standardization to simplify and accelerate adoption, and what the future of AI might look like in the imaging world and beyond.
