The Digital Transformation In Radiology

The challenges healthcare executives and administrators face are constantly changing. Host Kevin Stevenson talks with the heroes behind the heroes that are enabling hospitals, urgent care centers and telemedicine operators to spend their time tending to patients, while they handle the logistics.

On this episode of I Don’t Care, Host Kevin Stevenson talked with Dr. Moira Scheike, Founder of Cubismi and a board-certified radiologist specializing in cancer imaging. She invented 5D medical imaging technology. Cubismi is an interactive digital diagnostics pioneer who personalizes actionable visualizations and precision insights to transform and empower each professional interaction and patient journey. The duo talked about the cause and effect of the decline in the radiology job market, and how it can be reversed, and 5D imaging technology.

When it comes to imaging, the practice of radiology relies on outdated technology. When it comes to the digital transformation in radiology, 90 percent of the data is imaging. The industry also hasn’t benefitted from a digital transformation, which has left it open to high error rates and failures in disease detection. Schieke believes the field is poised for innovation and investment, both of which she argues is vital for rejuvenating the sector.

“We can think about it from two angles: what can we do about in the here and now, and immediately to address what are our major pains for the radiologist and healthcare systems dealing with huge problems around diagnostics,” Scheike said. “…in the long term, the big long term view, is we all know we have this vision for the future, a precision medicine future.”

The technological future Scheike refers to involves cloud computing and artificial intelligence. The challenges lie in stepping through and dealing with the current problems and then getting into the future. Another major problem is that the radiology job market is declining, with little investment being directed into the field over the past decade.
