How to deliver on regional image sharing
Image exchange portals are the vendor-neutral solution for sharing radiology images and reports in a multivendor environment. The PACS community is working together to make such exchanges possible, but vendors must learn to collaborate more effectively, writes Dr. Neelam Dugar.

AI algorithms begin to loom large in radiology
Computer scientists are busy at work creating a myriad of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms. Due to stringent regulations, very few algorithms have appeared yet to support clinical practice, but this looks set to change soon. Dr. Neelam Dugar investigates in a new column.

PACS with AI can replace PACS without AI
Artificial intelligence (AI) can help solve the huge reporting backlog, but this requires industry's cooperation, writes Dr. Neelam Dugar. PACS with AI will replace PACS without AI in the next five to 10 years, so don't get left behind, she urges.

Update: Record retention in vendor-neutral archive
Radiology departments are relatively advanced when it comes to digital transformation, but in the absence of meaningful algorithms for record retention, the unnecessary large size of imaging data kept online is likely to cost hospitals large amounts of cash, writes columnist Dr. Neelam Dugar.

Why all the fuss about artificial intelligence?
There's been a lot of talk recently about artificial intelligence in radiology. The question on everybody's mind is: "Will artificial intelligence replace radiologists?" Imaging informatics columnist Dr. Neelam Dugar is convinced it will add value by making radiologists smarter and better diagnosticians.

Paperless hospitals: VNA suppliers can learn from PACS
Vendor-neutral archive (VNA) companies are forging ahead with a vision of paperless hospitals. Vendors collaborating and adopting the standards-based approach can learn lessons from what made PACS such a global success and can help end users go paperless, writes Dr. Neelam Dugar.

PACS to PACS images & report sharing in clinical networks
In a modern day health service, patients are often treated in multiple hospitals within a clinical network. However, each hospital's PACS network can act as a data silo that prevents effective exchange of patient data, writes Dr. Neelam Dugar in her latest column.

Home reporting: Emergency nighttime radiology
The 2015 U.K. Radiological Congress debate on outsourcing was fascinating, with a myriad of views expressed. But despite what the session moderator may think, home reporting for radiologists has been around for more than 10 years and can bring major benefits, Dr. Neelam Dugar writes.

Teleradiology platform use expands in networks
The working patterns of radiologists have undergone enormous change. Remote or homeworking is gaining acceptance, but some observers think radiologists must be located within radiology departments to support radiographers, says Dr. Neelam Dugar.
