- danielheath 4y agoLearning to accurately read more than "clean break through an arm" typically takes about 15 years (6 years of medical school, 6 years of radiology school, and fresh graduate radiologists are neither quick nor particularly accurate compared to those who have been working for 3 years). Software is the least of your problems.
- solardev 4y agoThe DVD drive, yeah, that's annoying, but the portable ones exist. And the DVD has its own (Windows only) self-installing viewer thing. Web viewers exist too: https://ivmartel.github.io/dwv/ https://ivmartel.github.io/dwv/ Not to say it's great UX, but it's really not that hard to solve compared to the rest of the mess of the medical industry. It's a bureaucratic nightmare thing, not a software challenge.
