Healthcare providers are working to communicate with patients about errors more and more, hoping that well-planned disclosure and apology processes can help limit legislative action and improve care. What is radiology’s role in this growing trend?

Machine learning models can be trained to learn from how radiologists make decisions when interpreting screening mammograms, according to a new study published in the Journal of Digital Imaging. Such research may have a significant impact if used to train specialists.

Radiologists’ pay-raise rates are flat. Administrators are working hard to earn bonuses. Lots of technologists are looking for new opportunities, and few PACS pros are skimping on time off (but not many are overdoing it either). See the numbers behind the factoids in the tabulated results of the 2019 RBJ Salary Survey. Radiologists’ pay-raise rates are flat. Administrators are working hard to earn bonuses.
