RIS Wish List Roundtable
Friday, May 16, 2008
7:00 am – 8:00 am
Room 614
 
Moderator:

J. Raymond Geis, MD

Session Description:
After a very brief introduction to common RIS issues, this will be an interactive discussion among attendees about what is on your RIS worklist. Come ready to think about how you view the tasks of a RIS, what software you use to accomplish those tasks, and what does or does not work in your current situation. This will, hopefully, provide you with new ideas for how to solve your current RIS issues. We expect discussion to range from basic RIS understanding to advanced informatics strategies and future directions.

Learning Objectives:
1. Understand how RIS, PACS, transcription systems, HIS, EMR, and coding and billing software overlap, and where holes exist between the RIS and these other labels.
2. Describe what information a medical imaging entity contends with besides images.
3. Describe interactivity and interface issues among imaging informatics systems.
