Radiology 20/20

Sectra will host “Radiology 20/20”, a 90-minute Webinar on Thursday, November 8, at 11:30 a.m. The discussion will be centered on how dramatic developments in the technology, science, and management of radiology -- in particular the “data boom” in digital imaging -- will drive radical changes in its practice. The panelists will include Dr. Anders Persson, chief researcher at CMIV in Sweden, who will discuss how recent advances have led to new challenges in integration and communications, and are redefining roles and responsibilities within radiologic practice. Dr. Rudy VanHemert of the University of Arkansas Medical Services will talk about the pressing need for standards and integration. Michael West, director of diagnostic imaging services for Memorial Hospital in Gulfport, MS, will discuss the challenges of managing the rapid evolution of a digital imaging function, and the need for enhanced professional education and training. Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions of all panelists.
