Ensuring a State of the Art Future
 

Does your vendor call you when they detect a problem? Is solid state in your future? This session will provide an overview of past, present and future data storage.

Building on this foundation, attendees will experience PACS transitions; following one institution's process and suggestions on whether to migrate or not. Presenters will explain how to drive operational excellence using strong management principles to minimize downtime.

After developing a strong foundation in this Educational Session, be sure to attend the New Tools in Data Management Applied Vendor Tie-in Session for the opportunity to question leading vendors face-to-face.
