Digitization and transfer of images in Radiodiagnosis and Imaging dates back to to early 70s with the advent of Computerized Tomography Scanning, and, subsequently sending these images to cameras and printers hooked on to the machines through a local “network”. Rapid advancements in Information Technology (IT) as well as in the imaging technology have facilitated the healthcare organizations across the world to manage patient's images, records and other data more efficiently. Today, capturing images, archiving and retrieval have already reached great heights, and, further refinements are in progress. The infrastructural requirements for such a venture have to be very finely and judiciously planned well in advance with a view to go filmless as the ultimate objective. Involvement of all concerned and connected agencies is a must e.g. IT, Radiologists, Clinicians and the Vendors.

Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) is a standard for handling, storing, printing, and transmitting information in medical imaging. It includes a file format definition and a network communications protocol. The communication protocol is an application protocol that uses TCP/IP to communicate between systems. DICOM files can be exchanged between two entities that are capable of receiving image and patient data in DICOM format.
DICOM enables the integration of scanners, servers, workstations, printers, and network hardware from multiple manufacturers into a picture archiving and communication system (PACS). The different devices come with DICOM conformance statements which clearly state the DICOM classes they support. DICOM has been widely adopted by hospitals and is making inroads in smaller applications like dentists' and doctors' offices.
Healthcare network providers are facing new challenge of integration among affiliated healthcare centers, and Cloud PACS is the best ever-known solution to this challenge.
Medical imaging is part of a changing medical environment, a changing
patient environment and consequently a new medical world. In the
recent decennium one of the most important changes in radiology is the
conversion from analogue to digital. In no time medical images have
become interchangeable through the digital highway and could be postprocessed
in a different location. Teleradiology has become a reality
since then. We have seen the maturation of commercial international
teleradiology companies offering a wide portfolio of services. Another
aspect is the availability of image data for all medical specialties beyond
radiology and beyond the regular medical disciplines. An increasing
number of surgical or oncological specialties and even pharmaceutical
companies increasingly use image data to prepare a strategy for
operative procedures, to choose the right therapy, to decide which
prosthesis to the best to use, for follow-up or for post-processing
purposes. They are supported by many new techniques and software.
An increasing number of medical computer applications such as complex
navigation and visualisation tools based upon digital images is already
in clinical use or under development. Another trend is the increasing
interest in E-health and telemedicine in Europe, also among European
policy makers. Now we see mobile health that brings care directly into
the patient environment. The purpose of this presentation is to give a
comprehensive overview of and insight into these new developments and
to create awareness among radiologists of the increasing importance of
integration of medical imaging in a multidisciplinary environment.

Unlocking Efficiency How PACS in Radiology Are Saving Time and Improving Pati...PostDICOM
In the field of radiology, Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS) have revolutionized the way medical images are stored, accessed, and shared. This advanced technology has greatly improved efficiency and accuracy in radiology departments around the world. In this blog post, we will delve into the world of PACS in radiology and explore its various aspects, including its benefits, components, and implementation process. So, let's get started!
𝓗ealthcare professionals often use a bunch of jargon when talking among themselves and this shouldn’t be a surprise. It’s completely natural if it makes communication effective in an industry. Acronyms in particular, offer a bunch of benefits as they offer a simple way to describe situations, processes, concepts and other specific items that otherwise would make the conversation impossible to understand.
Radiology is the medical branch that uses imaging technology to diagnose and treat diseases. This in turn generates a huge amount of data that needs to be stored securely and should be available 24x7 to the relevant professionals.
To store the data without having to physically search and retrieve the files, radiologists utilize software tools that ease their work allowing them to focus on the more significant things. This is where software's like RIS, PACS and HIS come into the picture. If you’re completely in the dark about what RIS is and how it will benefit your institute, then you’re at the right place.
Here, we will discuss what RIS is, its importance, the basics of RIS and what the future holds for it.

ХОНДРОМАТОЗ СУСТАВОВ — заболевание неясной этиологии, связанное с развитием хрящевых узлов в толще синовиальной оболочки суставной сумки.
Чаще встречается в зрелом и пожилом возрасте, протекает хронически в течение многих лет с постоянным нарастанием симптомов.
Обычно поражается один сустав: локтевой, коленный, реже тазобедренный, лучезапястный или голеностопный. Узлы могут быть различной формы и величины (от нескольких миллиметров до нескольких сантиметров), а их число может достигать нескольких сотен. Отделившись от синовиальной оболочки, хрящевой узел превращается во внутрисуставное свободное тело — суставную мышь. Появляющееся ущемление этого тела может быть первым признаком заболевания. Но и при большом количестве хрящевых узлов боли и ограничение подвижности в суставе могут быть умеренными.
При осмотре можно выявить припухлость и хруст в суставе, а также признаки ущемления внутрисуставного свободного тела.
В случае обызвествления хрящевых узлов они отчетливо видны на рентгенограммах в виде дополнительных костных образований округлой или овальной формы, расположенных в полости сустава.
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.
New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection
