4 ways to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in radiology

AuntMinnie

Use of PACS made up 11% of departmental greenhouse gas emissions (0.48 Thiel and colleagues performed an LCA in April 2023 of the diagnostic radiology practice of Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, TN. Of these emissions, MRI was responsible for 48% (2.2 kt CO 2 e) and CT for 24% (1.1 kt CO 2 e). kt CO 2 e). kt CO 2 e).
