ECR: Implementing imaging referral guidelines shows positive impact

AuntMinnie

Implementing imaging referral guidelines not only supports value-based radiology but makes it easier to communicate with patients about low-value services, according to findings presented February 29 at ECR 2024. Low-value imaging procedures result in an ineffective allocation of resources and imposes potential danger," Tay said.

Making the Transformation from Analog to Digital Radiography

Everything Rad

The benefits of moving from analog imaging to full digital X-ray are well known. Digital Radiography (DR) can help speed your imaging workflow, ease the workload on your staff, and reduce the dose to support a higher standard of care. However, the image capture process is only one piece of the imaging chain.
