Thank you for Subscribing to Healthcare Business Review Weekly Brief
Radiologists are adopting medical imaging techniques that are transforming the pace and standard of healthcare delivery. With issues like high rates of burnout and limited access to clinical care made prevalent during the COVID-19 pandemic, there is a greater need for faster, cost-effective, and efficient medical imaging technologies. Technology like gene editing, 3D printing, and AI are evolving at a fast pace. In light of these trends, the radiology market is expected to reach $78.1 billion at a CAGR of 7.08 percent.
Cloud-based radiology systems are becoming more common across radiology practices and are optimizing the efficiency and scalability of clinical practices. Cloud radiology solutions are much faster and cost less to install, operate, and manage. They are also playing a major role in the shift of imaging and clinical data to the cloud in the near future, streamlining healthcare information so it will benefit healthcare providers and patients. By giving one platform to work with, the cloud solutions improve workflow efficiencies and reduces radiologists’ frustration, allowing them to provide quality care from wherever they are.
To put the spotlight on key developments in the industry, Healthcare Business Review illustrates how the radiology space is leveraging point-of-care testing. This edition also features thought leadership articles from subject matter experts. Some of the exclusive insights are authored by Timothy Rose, Product Management, Radiology at GE Healthcare; Gorm Lisby, Section Chief, Department of Clinical Microbiology at Amager og Hvidovre Hospital; and Julie Singewald, Vice President of Radiology at Essentia Health.
