The American College of Radiology (ACR) will hold its first annual ACR Imaging Informatics Summit and Dose Monitoring Forum on November 3 and 4.
On the first day of the event, the agenda will include perspectives on imaging IT policy issues, understanding the current challenges and options for implementing solutions, outlining what is necessary for the successful adoption and realization of outcomes, finding common ground and expectations with evolving informatics technology, and addressing practice effects and reimbursement issues with meaningful use and other imaging informatics systems.
The second day will cover how to monitor dose and dose indices proactively, comparison benchmarks, the challenges and limitations of available data, identifying protocols that could be improved, and communicating dose information and relative risks and benefits to patients and referring physicians.
The event will take place at the Hilton Hotel in Washington, DC. More information is available by clicking here.
