1. RIS-PACS – New Trends for 2023
RIS (Radiology Information Systems) and PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication
System) are digitally-driven systems. They help healthcare institutions reduce costs,
expedite communication, digitize storage and enhance patient care. So, it is obvious that
they have a bright future. But how promising, and what are a few trends that will
emerge, be retained, or emerge across the RIS and PACS spectrum? Let’s find it out.
RIS-PACS Global Market Growth
Per reports, the global PACS and RIS market size is expected to surpass the USD 3,000
million mark by 2028. It will grow to this size from approximately USD 2,300 million in
2022, at a healthy CAGR of nearly four percent from 2023 to 2028.
Much of this growth is attributed to the accelerated adoption and exponential growth of
digitization across the global healthcare landscape. Also, factors like ever-increasing
competition and the need to fulfill patients’ evolving needs will be pivotal to this growth.
RIS PACS Trend of 2023
Let’s now overview a few trends within the RIS and PACS sector to be seen in 2023.
 Radiology to Move Towards Cloud
Cloud has transformed radiology and will continue to do so in the future. It shifts data
from physical storage to a virtual repository called the cloud. Some of the cloud’s proven
benefits include reduced storage costs, increased scalability, more secure storage, quick
digital retrieval, and transfer of information. Cloud is new and emerging within this
space. But with more hospitals adopting it, radiology will keep moving towards it.
 Although Early, AI Will Grow
AI has already proved its worth across the healthcare sector. Now, it is time that its
verticals, one of which is radiology, also experiences the wonders it can work. AI can
help radiologists in many ways like in choosing a personalized patient’s protocol,
tracking their dose parameters and give an estimate of the risk of radiation.
Furthermore, in teleradiology, AI can help analyze and render diagnosis support to the
radiologist, thus simplifying routine operations helping improve the speed and accuracy
for radiologists. Again, AI hasn’t yet gained that momentum. But it is expected to catch
pace steadily.
 Shift Towards Digital Image Exchange

2. Physical records have various logistical limitations. Many healthcare institutions live with
them, as they and their patients still like to see a physical record of their images. But
things are changing. New-age patients prefer soft copies rather than hard copies and do
not have the time to travel to the hospital or lab only to collect the image.
RIS and PACS enable the digital transfer or exchange of images. Even in cases where
patients cannot travel to another doctor, digital transfer simplifies things, as images can
be shared with other doctors without requiring the patient to travel up to them.
