The number of female radiologists has been slowly climbing over the years, and yet women only account for about 26.5 percent of practicing radiologists in the U.S.1,2 The number of women in radiology leadership positions, such as a managing partner, chair, or executive committee member, is even lower at just 13 percent.3 Imaging Technology News (ITN) recently spoke with Lisa Adams, CEO of Radiology Imaging Associates (RA) in Daytona Beach, Florida and the newly elected president of the Florida Radiology Business Management Association (FRBMA), about her career path, the increase of women in radiology leadership roles, and how participation in […]
The medical staff at Washington Health System—physicians, nurses, and technologists alike—take great pride in the care they deliver to their patients.

An estimated 3 million people live in suburban Long Island, yet there are only a handful of diagnostic imaging centers offering open MRI—a modality in high demand, especially for claustrophobic and elderly patients. Now, one Long Island facility is raising the bar on MRI with its recent installation of two next-generation systems from Fujifilm, including one with an open design.
The image quality is excellent, the technology is very easy to use, and the patients really like the speed as well as the comfort. They like that they can get in and out in just a few minutes… [The ASPIRE Cristalle with DBT] makes me more confident as a radiologist.
The cesium detectors in Fujifilm’s FDR Go DR system helped the hospital achieve dose reductions of more than 50% over computed radiography techniques with equivalent or improved image quality
We have actually reduced radiation by 40 percent compared with CR. Wayne Couture, Director of Imaging and Cardiopulmonary Services at Androscoggin Valley Hospital.
After checking various vendors, the hospital eventually went with the FDR Go from FUJIFILM Healthcare Americas Corporation. We were pleasantly surprised that our biggest [dose] reduction was from FDR Go.
It was taking us from 15 to 30 minutes, with an average of 21 minutes to do CR for scoliosis images. Once the technologists became comfortable working with the new detector, we got it down to six minutes [with the FDR D-EVO GL]– Ernest M. Chavez, Director of Radiology at Driscoll Children’s Hospital.
Workflow has greatly improved for our physicians. Our NICU doctors, for example, used to have to wait until the technologist processed each cassette before it could hit our PACS just to see the images. Now, doctors see the images right away.
Our emergency physicians and surgeons require a durable, easy to use, portable unit that delivers the highest level of imaging to make the right treatment decisions quickly and safely, there is no room for compromises.
