title: A financial checkup for radiology services. Managers need comprehensive data to diagnose the shape of their departments.
abstract: Radiologists make their living interpreting murky X-rays and snowy ultrasound exams. Administrators often make decisions about managing radiology services in a similar way, with only a hazy idea of how to improve financial operations. Decisions about which procedures are profitable and which lose money require data. But that information is often in short supply.
