Agenda

  • OHIF Presentation from project week: https://vimeo.com/668339696/63a2c48de8

  • SIIM Talk on open source and difference it makes in world (Mohannad )

  • Video recording of this meeting?

    • Full recording would change the discussion somewhat
    • Ideas
      • Record part of it (specific topic)
      • Do a once a month recording?

  • Multimedia report project: https://github.com/chafey/multimedia-report

    • With existing products - links can become broken - especially outside the organization
      • Security/privacy issues - once they get out, no control
        • Waiver?
    • Save time for physicians
    • Patients really like these reports
    • for those who aren't aware, https://github.com/MGHComputationalPathology/highdicom allows for fairly easy python construction of SR, etc

  • Patients are seeing reports before referring physician

    • Patients come prepared with questions for physician
    • Goes beyond language - involves workflow (who sees what when)
    • Should patients be able to talk to radiologist and ask questions?
    • Some institutions have a policy where there is an embargo where patients cannot see reports for a period of time (24 hours)
    • Regulatory aspects - legislation that addresses information access to patient "information blocking"
    • Third party service that a patient could pay for to get results explained to them NOW
      • Reduces physician burnout (DMs via patient portal)
      • Asking questions beyond their understanding
    • Who is the authoritative person to ask that understands the broader patient context?
      • Referring physician
    • "Every radiology report is a negotiation"
      • Not uncommon as an interventional radiologist will disagree with other physicians
      • Want to avoid situation where physician discounts what radiologist says
        • Want tools that empower the collaboration - like it used to be before everything went digital

  • IBM Watson Health divesture to PE firm

    • Will IBM Watson do anything in healthcare AI? Did they retain any healthcare IP? unclear
    • Was really hyped initially - big plans, but went quiet 9 months later?
    • Watson health story seemed to more marketing hype than product?

  • Moving meeting time between two times (for austrailia, asia time zones)

    • Try out a late call once a month
