A machine learning algorithm can determine appropriate follow-up imaging based off of radiology reports, according to a new study published in the Journal of Digital Imaging. The technology may eventually be developed to automatically tell if a patient completed their follow-up exam.

An audio/visual reporting tool integrated into an emergency department’s musculoskeletal workflow can improve communication between radiologists and referring providers while making imaging findings easier to comprehend.

“Substantial differences in report structure, content, length, and degree of detail provided by different radiologists can be a source of confusion and frustration for referrers and patients," wrote authors of a new study published in the American Journal of Roentgenology.

Machine learning algorithms can classify free-text pathology reports at the organ level and are easily interpreted by human readers, according to an Aug. 7 study published in Radiology: Artificial Intelligence.

Women are out-earning their male counterparts in the role of chief information officer in the healthcare field, according to a new salary report from the College of Healthcare Information Management Executives (CHIME).

Customized dashboards are helping health systems, hospitals and practices realize improvements in quality and cost of care.

Just four months after appointing the first-ever chief health informatics officer at CMS, the position is vacant.

The medical imaging industry contributes billions of dollars to state economies, according to three new reports published June 12, by the Medical Imaging & Technology Alliance (MITA). The findings, experts say, provide more reason to permanently repeal the medical device tax.
