Educational Content: Image Sharing & Data Management

2012

Displays (Part of the Need to Know Series)

Although radiology has successfully made the transition from analog film to digital acquisition and viewing of radiographic images, we are still exploring new ways to enhance the image interpretation process in the context of the digital radiology reading room and the Integrated Healthcare Enterprise.
