With so much going on in the news lately about healthcare and medicine I couldn't resist putting together a quiz about medicine, health care, and other medical related topics.

Baby boomers might not have a corner on the marketplace for an urgent wish to stay youthful, but they certainly have set a high standard for making a virtual avalanche of products and services to attend to that need. The quest to look young for boomers has resulted in an increase of earnings within the cosmetic and cosmetic surgery markets.

Just as the advent of regular postal deliveries changed communications drastically, so has the use of the Internet and the World Wide Web. With the use of electronic communications, including digital imagery and other types of data, communications are now much quicker and more cost effective.

RIS is a software database that enables radiology departments to archive and distribute both digital medical images as well as other types of data such as patient scheduling, tracking and reporting. When used together, they greatly improve the workflow for any radiology department in a small or large medical facility.
This process is already going on at large for-profit medical centers and major university hospitals; however, for smaller health care facilities and non-profits, often the decision is more complex. This is particularly true of specialty clinics and radiology facilities that focus on one type of medical issue and a single type of modality. Is it better to go with a mini-PACS that serves present needs and deal with the problem of integration when it comes, or should the facility make the costly investment of a full PACS-RIS?
