Notwithstanding the hopes and fears around AI, medical 3D printing is the emerging technology that could help pull radiology into the realm of the indispensable. Thanks to progress toward permanent billing codes, the future of reimbursable 3D printing is taking shape.

In a recent survey, researchers found that physicians see high clinical value in outside imaging studies, but gaining access is often a “cumbersome" and "frustrating" chore. 

Making these resources more accessible to patients and referring providers will be crucial in the coming era of consumer-focused care, researchers argued in a new study.

Cinebot allows users to convert multi-frame images into sharable video resources with one-click, and it has been a hit so far, researchers wrote in the Journal of Digital Imaging.

A new survey found many physicians were not confident in the quality of interpretations performed outside of their own institution, signaling even seamless access to secondary resources may not reduce double-imaging.

The Utah-based research firm recently recognized a slew of vendors, based on what it learned from thousands of interviews with healthcare providers and payers. 

Last February, 439-bed Riverside University Health System Medical Center (RUHS-MC) opened a new cardiac and neurovascular catheterization lab. While some internal questioning initially swirled around which vendor would supply image-management products and services, the CIO-led selection and acquisition team quickly settled on Sectra’s Enterprise Imaging for Cardiology solution.

U.S. Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., recently spelled out his concerns in a sharply worded letter to the Defense Health Agency.
