Abstract

Health care is not a focused business. No one can define it precisely. If you see your organization as being involved in health care, you'll be battered by the winds of fortune. What business are you in? People looking after people? A regional organization that focuses the physician on the patient in need? Alternative health care network? Teaching hospital? Vendor/supplier to the health care industry? If you are going to build a plan, it's important to know who you are. If you don't, you can't know wh ere you want to go.

[Whole body MRI--diagnostic strategy of the future?].

Whole body magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) opens new opportunities in diagnostic radiology as systemic disease entities can be examined with high sensitivity. This can lead to a change of paradigm, so that not only organ-related but rather disease-specific MRI examination protocols can be applied which focus on the underlying pathophysiology of the disease. Whole body MRI has already been successfully used for several oncological and non-oncological indications. In addition, whole body MRI has broadened the discussion regarding its use for secondary prevention. Compared to computed tomography, MRI does not use radiation. Although whole body MRI is still in an early stage, the enormous medical and economical potential can be envisioned.
