A Radiology Director Speaks Out on Imaging Service Issues

摘要

Probably the biggest challenge we face is the rapidly changing level of imaging technology. Repair vs. replacement is huge. We want to have the "latest and greatest" technologies, while at the same time being fiscally responsible. We need to maintain a completive edge, but this might not be the most economically sound decision. Technology is advancing so fast. The timing of major capital purchases and strategic planning for new services probably top the list of items that concern many healthcare providers today.
