MU and Imaging
• Stage 2 MU requirements call for remote viewing systems to allow referring physicians or others access a patient’s EMR to view images and reports from various departments.
• It calls for the integration of patient access to health information and images via patient portals to increase patient engagement. This may play a larger role in the future, as patients with chronic conditions like diabetes and heart failure will be asked to take a more active role in their healthcare with remote monitoring programs. C
• Clinical decision support and computerized physician order entry (CPOE) is now being required to improve patient safety, eliminate illegible written orders, record all orders in one location, reduce redundant tests and to justify use of expensive tests or imaging exams.
• VNAs also can help enable remote access to patient data using mobile devices, such as tablets by physicians on rounds, anywhere in the hospital, on the road or at home. This may lead to a reduced reliance on workstations in fixed locations, allowing greater workflow efficiency and improved patient communication and education.
The world is changing as

What is needed
• No more Data Siloes
• Enterprise – Community View
• Universally Acessable
• Break the Glass model
• Do not ignore Privacy Rules
• Respect the patient- Epatient Dave
• Data by itself is useless unless converted to actionable information.
Data Liquidity
• In 2001 the IOM report "Crossing the Quality
Chasm" and the NCVHS report "Information for
Health" were released and they provided the context
for the development of information systems used to
support health-supporting processes. Both had as
their goals, implicit or explicit, to ensure the right
data is provided to the right person at the right time,
which is one definition of "Data Liquidity
Data liquidity is not just about
Technology
Culture Trumps technology
Data is King
Data Liquidity does not mean
Chaos
• Data Management
Image Life cycle Management
Storage Tiers
Prefetch
Compliance and Auditing cannot be Ignored!!
Authentication Rules are not a matter of choice!
Key Considerations
• Regulatory Compliance
• Risk Management
• Data Trustee/Stewardship
• Centralized Data management
XDS-Technology is not the
real issue
• Cross-Enterprise Document Sharing (XDS)
facilitates the registration, distribution and access
across health enterprises of patient electronic health
records.

Just not radiology
• A fully integrated cardiovascular department with a CVIS enables staff to remain in one area and have complete visibility of a patient’s prior history along with current procedural data/imaging. Most of the market-available solutions have structured reporting modules that have been optimized to improve cardiologists’ reporting workflow with reduced steps of data entry and conventional dictations.
• Structured templates for echo, pediatrics, peripheral vascular, cath lab and several others are offered by many solutions in the market, and this has truly become a standard practice for increased performance. -

Imaging + Genomics
• The early assumption that DNA sequencing alone could explain disease and help define specific therapies has given way to a more nuanced view that epigenetic processes, the cellular matrix, and aspects of the intracellular milieu such as micro RNA and proteomics are elements that modulate gene expression and are the scaffold of the diseased state (4).
• Many in the basic-science community admit, at least in a perfunctory way, that genotype manifests itself as phenotype (here read “imaging”) and that the one may inform the other. Also, there is increasing recognition that there is not only substantial heterogeneity between tumors but also within tumors (5)
• . In one study (6), two-thirds of the mutations found in single biopsy samples were not uniformly detected in all the sampled regions of the same patient’s tumor. Here again, imaging has the potential to help noninvasively characterize the whole tumor, all tumors in the patient, and tumors at multiple time points over the course of treatment. However, there are few investigators who have yet pursued that potential connectivity in the published imaging literature. It is also true that federal program announcements and grant funding review committees have been slow to acknowledge or encourage investigation of that science intersection.

Surgical Simulation
Unlike mammography and breast ultrasound, breast MR imaging assesses the blood
flow to a tumor. The blood flow to cancers is different from the blood flow to normal
tissue, and the radiologist uses this information to determine which lesions need to be
biopsied, and which can be left alone. This is valuable information, but it presents a
slew of data to the radiologist that must be interpreted.
In particular, the radiologist must identify that region of the lesion that has the most
suspicious type of blood flow. This is a tedious process when done by hand, but is
relatively straightforward once the computer has generated an “angiogenesis map.”
The map is a color representation of the kind of blood flow in a given tissue, and is
superimposed on the anatomical images. Much like a weather map is used to indicate
regions with particular temperatures or heavy precipitation, so too can an
angiogenesis map identify tissue associated with malignant-type blood flow. The
angiogenesis map is an intuitive tool that allows the radiologist to quickly identify the
tissue that is most suspicious for a malignancy. - See more at:
