3 ways a pediatric radiology labor shortage could impact healthcare | EHRs and burnout

Demand for pediatric radiologists is currently outpacing the supply, according to a new analysis published in the Journal of the American College of Radiology. What could this trend mean going forward?

Many physicians feel stress at work due to interacting with their institution’s electronic health record (EHR), according to new findings published in JAMA Network Open.

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has proposed a new revision to its guidance document designed for patients to read before and after they have been administered radioactive material.

Most parents of pediatric patients undergoing imaging examinations want those results as quickly as possible, even if it means not discussing them in person with a physician, according to new findings published in Academic Radiology.

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.

Point-of-Care ultrasound is now routinely used wherever a patient in need happens to be. In the midst of it all, radiologists and ER doctors are looking for ways to collaborate rather than compete.
