Welcome to the inaugural edition of Radiology Business, the weekly newsletter from RadiologyBusiness.com. With news in our market developing at such a rapid rate, we aim to provide a weekly digest of topics, trends and happenings important to radiology business professionals.
While we will be sending a weekly newsletter to you, feel free to drop in on our website each day at RadiologyBusiness.com. Here you’ll find news added daily, longer-length features and insights on strategies to thrive in a very challenging healthcare environment. You also will find articles from our companion magazine, Radiology Business Journal.
We want to hear from you, too. Be sure to send us news and announcements from your hospitals and practices on M&A, new service lines and executive appointments—and let us know if there are topics you want to hear more about.
Last week, low-dose CT lung-cancer screening dominated the news, with MEDCAC’s low-confidence vote and the ACR's release of Lung-RADS, a numeric system to standardize the reporting of lung-cancer screening studies.
Moving ahead, we look forward to communicating with greater frequency as we develop our new website and newsletter offerings.
