Diagnostic imaging practices have literally purchased tons of technology to support their important work. Should their primary focus be the internal operations or the external interactions?

By focusing on external interactions, imaging centers can map technology and processes to ensure proper alignment with delivering quality care to their patients and building stronger relationships with physicians. Two questions illustrate this point are:

1. What is the best method to accept orders and deliver patient reports from the referring community?


2. What are the underlying technology requirements to support delivering higher quality care to patients?

Answering these questions may help shape the way your technology and processes are implemented.
