Decision Support in the Digital Medical Enterprise -
SCAR's sixth primer brings an up-to-date view on how to maximize the
accuracy and efficiency of diagnostic interpretation (both human and
computer) in a logical and methodical fashion. It serves as a starting
perspective on the pursuit of evidence-based medicine and the changing
role of the radiologist from a passive to active participant in the
image interpretation process.

Security Issues in the Digital Medical Enterprise/Second Edition - The new
fifth primer is an upgrade to the first primer on computer security
issues. When
the first edition of this volume was prepared 4 years ago, most imaging
departments were already aware of the need for vigilance in their use
and transmission of digital images and patient data. Since that time a
number of factors have coalesced to make security not only a major
concern, but a legally regulated aspect of every imaging setting. These
settings range from the hospital to every remote site at which a
diagnosis is madeeven the home office of the radiologist.
This book is designed as a starting point for those considering changes
and contemplating future efforts in meeting these evolving challenges.
Editors: Samuel J. Dwyer, III, PhD, Bruce I. Reiner, MD, and Eliot L. Siegel,
