Radiology embracing the flexibility of imaging data stored off-site in the cloud

Lyle McMillin, with radiology IT vendor Hyland, explains trends he sees in the market and a definite shift toward cloud and enterprise imaging to address challenges in the market. 

Melissa Chen, MD, Clinical Neuroradiologist, Associate Professor, University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, said challenges ton radiology include the limitations of the relative value units (RVUs) used to pay radiologists, the need for balancing workloads despite disincentives to reading some studies, and the need to find new workflow efficiencies with AI to offset the radiologist shortage. #RSNA
