Grandview Medical Center achieves new levels of efficiency and quality with PowerScribe One
In Birmingham, Alabama, Grandview Medical Center has grown to become a progressive, flagship facility. But until 2019, the radiology department still relied one hundred percent on transcription for their radiology reports. According to radiologist Dr. Joel Mixon, the process was inefficient at best. As a resident, he trained on a voice recognition platform, so he […]

The Real View: Integrating AI into radiology workflow to accelerate future growth
Health systems and radiology departments continue to face the ongoing challenges of burnout and financial constraints, both of which have been exacerbated by a global pandemic. We know, for example, that the American College of Radiology has adopted CDC guidance to reschedule non-urgent outpatient screening, such as mammography, and interventional procedures. The economic effects are […]

A Real View: Supporting Northwell radiologists and the Javits Center field hospital with innovation and infrastructure
In late March, as New York City prepared for a surge in patients with COVID-19, officials from FEMA and the Army Corps of Engineers partnered to create thousands of additional patient care beds over just a couple of weeks. Supporting this plan meant dedicating space within the city’s iconic Javits Center to establish a temporary […]
