Image is everything.

Abstract

Digital imaging is transforming the practice of radiology. But provider organizations face many technical and financial challenges on the road to becoming filmless. Their own reluctance to let go of the film habit is making the transition to digital images difficult. And the complexity of the myriad technologies, as well as the high prices delivery systems and hospitals still must pay to acquire them, are slowing the march toward filmless radiology departments.

About a quarter of plans did not address out-of-hours care or community nursing. The plans lacked detail of the process guiding resource allocation. The plans showed little indication of services being organised around the priorities of the local health improvement programme.
