title: A developing crisis. Staffing overshadows all other challenges facing radiology departments.
abstract: The shortage of radiologists and technologists poses a huge problem for hospitals as the demand for imaging services grows. It behooves hospital executives, therefore, to find creative ways to partner with their radiology groups--before somebody else does. This is the first installment in H&HN's quarterly Clinical Management series, which examines how hospitals are responding to dramatic shifts in specific clinical areas.
