Reading Time: 1 minute read

Todd Kranpitz, Executive Director of Radiology at Iowa Health, Des Moines, visited our social media broadcast center at RSNA to offer his thoughts on the transformation underway in radiology.  Kranpitz feels its important that the radiology professionals become educators and reach out to other specialties to ensure they understand ALL that diagnostic imaging can bring to the table throughout the care continuum.

Also, Kranpitz recently acquired a CARESTREAM DRX-Revolution Mobile X-Ray System and shares his feedback on the impact of the portable unit on technologist productivity. He also discusses how surgeons want the technology and he sees the potential to replace c-arm systems in the operating room with a DRX unit.
