PARCA eNews – July 1, 2019 – The SIIM 2019 Annual Meeting held June 26-28 at the Gaylord Rockies Resort in Aurora, Colorado continued the success of last year’s meeting based on the number of attendees and vendors. 

It also continued the upbeat atmosphere of the Society for Imaging Informatics in Medicine (SIIM) that had been severely depressed in the dark days of the 2008 recession, according to PARCA founder Herman Oosterwijk, who attends the meeting every year.


In an interview with Aunt Minnie, Herman summarized one of the take-aways he gleaned from the meeting regarding the strategies healthcare organizations are taking to implement enterprise imaging with VNA’s.

Out of the 100 or so different workflows that challenge enterprise imaging solutions that Herman outlined in an article before the meeting, he sees three strategies emerging:

  • Top down
  • Bottom up and
  • A hybrid
Other highlights from the meeting included AI, Enterprise Imaging, Teleradiology, CD’s, and cybersecurity.

You can read his full recap of the meeting on his blog.
