Imaging Informatics

Imaging informatics (also known as radiology informatics, a component of wider medical or healthcare informatics) includes systems to transfer images and radiology data between radiologists, referring physicians, patients and the entire enterprise. This includes picture archiving and communication systems (PACS), wider enterprise image systems, radiology information. systems (RIS), connections to share data with the electronic medical record (EMR), and software to enable advanced visualization, reporting, artificial intelligence (AI) applications, analytics, exam ordering, clinical decision support, dictation, and remote image sharing and viewing systems.

Use of the scoring system could offer providers valuable preoperative insight and help guide them in surgical decisions.

Manisha Bahl, MD, breast imaging division quality director and breast imaging division co-service chief, Massachusetts General Hospital, and an associate professor of radiology, Harvard Medical School, explains the findings of a recent study she was involved in at RSNA 2024. She also offers insights into growing interest at sessions in using AI in breast imaging.
