EMERGING TRENDS IN PATENT SAFETY AND QUALITY IN MEDICAL IMAGING
EMERGING TRENDS IN PATENT SAFETY AND QUALITY OF MEDICAL IMAGING By Prof.M. THANGA DARWIN INTRODUCTION “Patient safety is a precarious component of medical imaging quality Improving Quality through Patient Safety Patient safety is the cornerstone of high-quality health care and medical imaging. ” In modern environment of rapid growth and technological advancement, radiologic technologists face a number of challenges when new and emerging technologies are introduced or when equipment upgrades occur. Hence every technologist need to update their knowledge. This paper focus on modern trends in safety and quality in medical imaging. PATENT SAFETY The simplest definition of patient safety is the prevention of errors and adverse effects to patients associated with health care. While health care has become more effective it has also become more complex, with greater use of new technologies, medicines and treatments.
