Key Highlights:
[1] Future-ready radiology = agility + digital integration + operational resilience, with workflows being more important than hardware alone.

[2] Change management is the biggest barrier to adopting advanced technologies, more than budget or technology itself.

[3] AI in healthcare delivers value only when it improves real clinical outcomes—solutions that save time, reduce errors, or save lives will endure, while hype-driven tools without measurable impact will naturally phase out.

[4] Effective procurement requires clinicians to understand finance and procurement teams to understand medicine, ensuring balanced, rational decisions.

[5] No single vendor can provide best-in-class HIS/RIS/PACS/modality systems—the best approach is multi-vendor integration with strong IT support.
