Basic Knowledge of Medical Imaging Informatics, 1st ed. 2021 Undergraduate Level and Level I Imaging Informatics for Healthcare Professionals Series

Langue : Anglais

Coordonnateur : van Ooijen Peter M. A.

Couverture de l’ouvrage Basic Knowledge of Medical Imaging Informatics

This book provides a unique introduction to the vast field of Medical Imaging Informatics for students and physicians by depicting the basics of the different areas in Radiology Informatics. It features short chapters on the different main areas in Medical Imaging Informatics, such as Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS), radiology reporting, data sharing, and de-identification and anonymization, as well as standards like Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM), Integrating the Health Enterprise (IHE) and Health Level 7 (HL7,.

Written by experts in the respective fields and endorsed by the European Society of Medical Imaging Informatics (EuSoMII) the scope of the book is based on the Medical Imaging Informatics sub-sections of the European Society of Radiology (ESR) European Training Curriculum Undergraduate Level and Level I.

This volume will be an invaluable resource for residents and radiologists and is also specifically suited for undergraduate training.


1.       From Physical Film to PACS

Peter van Ooijen

How the transition went from the use of physical film to the PACS environment. What are the basic components of a PACS.

2.       The essence of HL7, DICOM, and IHE

Peter Mildenberger

What is the essence of the most important standards in the imaging domain, HL7, DICOM and IHE. What are they used for and what are the basic and most important building blocks

3.       Development of Radiology Reporting

Daniel Pinto dos Santos

How did radiology reporting develop from dictation and typists to full-blown voice recognition. What are the components involved, what problems can you run into with such systems? What is the role of structured reporting.

4.       Basic Imaging Workflow

Elmar Kotter

What does the imaging workflow look like both within radiology and beyond. What kind of communication is involved. Where are the previously described standards used. How does PACS and RIS/EPD driven workflow differ?

5.       Diagnostic displays

Erik Ranschaert

What are requirements for diagnostic displays? How are they checked? What is the role of the DICOM standard in this? What about the use of mobile device screens?

6.       Advanced Visualization Basics

Angel Alberich-Bayarri

The basics of advanced visualization including examples and discussion about the different technical implementations (server and client based rendering, web based, CPU/GPU etc)

7.       Sharing imaging data

Erik Ranschaert

How are data shared within the enterprise and outside. What are the caveats. What is the role of mobile devices.

8.       De-identification and anonymization

Peter van Ooijen

How can imaging data be prepared for use in (clinical) research by de-identification and anonymization. What is the role of the standards? What kind of tools can be used?

9.       New and upcoming technologies

All authors contribute

New technologies such as AR/VR, 3D Printing and Artificial Intelligence are changing the role of radiology. What is going on and how are they going to change the field.

Peter van Ooijen, MSc PhD, is an Associate Professor in Medical Imaging Informatics at the Department of Radiation Oncology at the University Medical Center Groningen, where he is also the coordinator of the Machine Learning Lab, which is part of the Data Science in Health (DASH) unit. He is a board member of EuSoMII and has been involved in Medical Imaging Informatics research for over 20 years and co-published over 175 peer-reviewed publications, of which over 150 are listed in PubMed. He is a well-received invited lecturer at various conferences and courses worldwide, and is an editorial board member of PLOS ONE and European Radiology Experimental. His research activities include projects on advanced visualization and processing of imaging data, imaging biomarkers, human-machine interaction, and deep learning. He is senior member of the IEEE, holds a University Teaching Qualification in the Netherlands and is a CPHIMS.
