Radiologist Burnout: What Imaging Center Operators Can Actually Do About It When a radiologist leaves a practice, the replacement cost — recruitment, credentialing, onboarding, and productivity ramp-up — is estimated at $500,000 to $1,000,000 per physician according to the American College of Radiology. That is the number an imaging center operator... By Mircea Popa May 7, 2026

How Much Does Cloud PACS Cost? A Total Cost of Ownership Framework for Radiology Practices Most PACS pricing conversations start and end in the wrong place. A vendor quotes a monthly subscription fee. A competitor quotes a lower one. The practice administrator compares the two numbers and calls it a cost comparison. What that comparison...

Radiology Hanging Protocols: What They Are, How They Work, and How to Configure Them for Your Workflow Every second a radiologist spends on a task that is not interpretation is a second that reduces the practice’s diagnostic output without improving its diagnostic quality. In a high-volume reading environment — 80 to 120 studies per shift in a... By Mircea Popa Apr 27, 2026

Patient Guide to MRI, MRA, and EEG: When Each Test Is Used Your doctor has ordered an imaging test — or perhaps you are trying to understand the difference between tests you have heard about — and you want to know in plain language what each one does, when it is used,...

Structured Radiology Reporting: Templates, Best Practices, and AI-Assisted Workflows

Radiology Reporting Software: Structured Reporting, Templates, and AI-Assisted Workflows Radiology reporting software is the category of tools that radiologists use to produce diagnostic reports, and the most significant shift in this category is the move from free-text narrative dictation to structured reporting. Structured radiology reporting is a methodology for... By Mircea Popa Apr 20, 2026

EHR vs EMR? Understanding the Key Differences and Impact EHR (Electronic Health Records) and EMR (Electronic Medical Records) may sound interchangeable—but they serve distinct purposes. While both store patient information electronically, EMRs are limited to a single practice, whereas EHRs allow data sharing across multiple providers. This key difference...

Cloud PACS for Specialty Clinics: What Orthopedic, Neurology, and Oncology Practices Need on a Budget A small specialty clinic and a hospital radiology department have one thing in common: both produce medical images that must be stored, retrieved, and shared. Everything else about their requirements is different, except for the cloud PACS for specialty clinics... By Alexandru Artimon Apr 15, 2026

Vendor Neutral Archive Benefits: What VNA Delivers vs What Vendors Claim The case for a vendor neutral archive is made the same way by every vendor that sells one. Eliminate vendor lock-in. Reduce storage costs. Enable cross-department access. Integrate images into the EHR. Prepare your archive for AI. All of these... By Alexandru Artimon Apr 13, 2026
