With the pandemic exacerbating issues such as radiologist shortages, higher rates of burnout, and limited access to clinical care, there’s a great need for fast, cost-effective, and efficient medical imaging technologies. Radiologists are adopting artificial intelligence (AI) and other digital technologies to revolutionize the medical imaging industry.
Applied Ai in medical imaging has augmented the radiologists’ capabilities to recognize complicated patterns in imaging data and provide quantitative decision support. In radiation oncology, AI is being applied to several unique image modalities used at different stages during the treatment. The depth perception achieved from 3D imaging used along with AR or VR is further improving visualization. Medical professionals are using it to rotate the image and make cross-sections for better visualization and planning before a procedure.
With many other momentous medical imaging innovations, the radiology market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.8 percent by 2028, to reach $56.53 billion.
To put the spotlight on other key developments in the industry, Healthcare Business Review illustrates how the radiology space is leveraging the newest tech trends and devices to empower patients.
