#SIIM20 Make Your Imaging Informatics Predictions
1.
What type of input device do you currently use most of the time?
Joystick
Touch screen
Mouse
Track ball
Keyboard (hot keys)
Other
2.
How long will we still be using a mouse?
< 5 years
5-10 years
> 10 years
Forever
3.
Why do people stick to using one type of device?
Habit
Too hard to learn a new one
Cost
Maybe the one being used is the best
4.
What will “The Next Killer Application” in Diagnostic Imaging do?
Find abnormalities (e.g. lung nodule detection)
Quantification/radiomics
Prediction of change/outcomes/treatment
Productivity enhancement
Image acquisition improvement resulting in higher resolution, less noisy, faster imaging, fewer artifacts
5.
Predict the following “AI Tipping Point” in radiology where computers will be able to generate the majority of reports for mammography and Chest “X-rays”
2021 (next year)
2022 – 2025 (2-5 years)
2026-2029 (6-9 years)
2030-2033 (10-13 years)
Beyond 2033 (more than 13 years)
6.
In the time of Covid we have seen an astronomical rise in telemedicine across healthcare. In 2025, how regular will virtual real-time synchronous image navigation consultations be?
About as common as today, next to nothing
A novelty used only in Academic Medical Centers
becomes common only in hard cases M&M (Tumor Boards)
becomes common in Emergency Medicine settings
becomes a part of general practice
7.
In 2025, how will radiology education primarily exist?
We will still be on web conferencing
We will be back to live conferencing
There will be a hybrid with both
ROBOTS!

In five years (2025), how often will imaging exams be exchanged by portable media like CD and USB versus an online method?
Frequently – it is cheap and easy to export to portable media, and patients like to have a physical copy
Fairly Often – big enterprises will use online options, but there are lots of imaging centers and smaller providers that will not
About 50/50 – More enterprises and consumers are comfortable with online methods and don’t need to use portable media, but some are still in the planning stages. Patients can securely access/download and view their data from a browser at least for a period of time after their exam.
Rarely – Most enterprises have adopted optimized online image sharing methods, especially with the other enterprises with which they share often. Patients can securely access/download and view their data from a browser at their convenience.
Almost Never – What’s a CD?
