And Then Came the AI

And Then Came the PACS was one of the most important articles I have read in my professional life. It was published about 5 years ago in JAMA by Joseph Henry Hise, MD. Dr. Hise eloquently explained how the introduction of PACS had unintended consequences. Consequences that were not fully considered when the profession adopted the technology in the early 2000's. PACS changed radiology, and in some cases, not for the better.
