Feature | Digital Radiography (DR) | By Jeff Zagoudis
As healthcare in the United States shifts focus to providing higher-quality care while keeping costs down, workflow efficiency is a guiding bedrock principle for providers. From this standpoint, few technologies have demonstrated greater promise for maximizing clinical and operational efficiency than mobile digital radiography (DR). Putting digital X-ray capability onto a mobile cart-based system allows healthcare facilities to bring the radiology department directly to the patient, allowing faster diagnosis, and in turn quicker exam turnaround and discharge times. As the the technology continues to evolve, vendors have focused on improving battery life, durability and wireless connectivity to further maximize the utility of these versatile systems.

Pediatric patients with head and neck cancer can be treated with proton beam therapy (PBT) instead of traditional photon radiation, and it will result in similar outcomes with less impact on quality of life. Researchers from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania as well as Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia analyzed cases of pediatric head and neck cancer treated with PBT between 2010 and 2016 and found similar rates of tumor control and lower rates of toxicity than what is historically expected from photon radiation. They published their findings in the journal Pediatric Blood and Cancer.
