"Many Federal agencies invest in medical-imaging research or play other important roles in developing and deploying imaging technology to support clinical care and research. In response to Congressional interest, the National Science and Technology Council established in 2015 an Interagency Working Group on Medical Imaging (IWGMI) to coordinate Federal investments in medical-imaging research and develop a roadmap for medical-imaging research and development. The IWGMI has identified “advancing high-value imaging” as an overarching theme for efforts to achieve better health outcomes and smarter health care spending through medical imaging. It has identified six objectives that should serve to guide Federal research and development activities to generate better value for patients from medical imaging and to optimize healthcare outcomes and costs:" See https://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/2016/12/22/advancing-high-value-imaging-support-patient-care-and-research for the complete report. en-us Copyright 2000-2026 NITRC OSI Sun, 19 Apr 2026 6:46:36 GMT http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss NITRC RSS generator
