At SIIM 2014, mobile technology was a hot topic. See the apps presented by a mobile technology expert here.
With over a million apps in the app store, finding a valuable radiology app can be a daunting process. At SIIM 2014, Woojin Kim, MD, assistant professor of radiology, hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, divided apps into categories and called out a few worth checking out. Here is a brief list:
