A hospital-based breast imaging clinic implemented a real-time location system (RTLS) to track its workflow, learning important information that will lead to better patient care moving forward.

Using data from the Human Connectome Project, researchers were able to reassess inconsistent findings from neuroimaging studies of Alzheimer’s patients, according to a study published online Dec. 14 in the journal BRAIN.

Radiologists find value in the usage of interactive multimedia, such as hyperlinks, into their clinical reporting, according to new research published in the Journal of the American College of Radiology.

Radiology has continuously been on the forefront of adopting new technologies. But at one institution, it took a bit of training and exposure to existing interactive multimedia reporting features before radiologists were willing to adopt it into clinical practice.

Radiologists on the receiving end of anonymous corrections during peer-review processes are more likely to subsequently dole out anonymous corrections to other rads—and the effect is especially pronounced when the original “gotcha” was issued over a miss that had no clinical significance.

Imaging orders sent via electronic health records (EHRs) have less complete—and consequently less reliable—patient information than those found in physician notes on the same patient in the same EHR, according to research published online Dec. 5 in the Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association.

Patient information in imaging orders sent via electronic health records (EHRs) is less complete and less reliable than that found in physician notes on the same patient in the same EHR.

Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) in Boston is diving straight into the hype of blockchain by collaborating with Korean blockchain startup MediBloc to improve the health system’s patient data sharing and storage capabilities, according to a report published Dec. 5 by CoinDesk.
