What if one of the most effective tools for preventing colon cancer is also one of the least utilized?
In this episode of Medical Imaging Matters, AHRA Executive Director Jason Newmark sits down with radiologist Dr. Mark Klein and gastroenterologist Dr. Randy Pellish to unpack the opportunities and challenges surrounding virtual colonoscopy. Despite being a safe, minimally invasive, and accurate screening tool, it remains largely underused across the healthcare system.
Drs. Klein and Pellish walk through what makes virtual colonoscopy a compelling option: no sedation, a quicker and easier experience for patients, and the ability to detect both cancers and precancerous polyps with remarkable precision. In some cases, it offers a more accessible and cost-effective pathway to screening, particularly for patients who might otherwise delay or avoid traditional colonoscopy.
So why hasn’t it taken off? The answer lies in a mix of outdated perceptions, limited awareness among providers and patients, and operational barriers that have slowed adoption. The conversation explores how standardization, education, and emerging technologies like AI could help close these gaps and offer broader access.
At a time when screening guidelines are shifting and younger, high-risk populations are entering the picture, the stakes are rising. Expanding the use of virtual colonoscopy could help reach millions of underserved patients — catching disease earlier and saving lives in the process.
For imaging leaders, clinicians, and policymakers, this episode offers a clear call to action: Rethink what’s possible in colon cancer screening, and consider how more accessible, patient-friendly tools can reshape care delivery.

Radiation safety is everywhere in imaging — but rarely in the spotlight.
In this episode of Medical Imaging Matters, host Jason Newmark brings together three experts from across the industry to discuss what radiation safety really looks and why it’s far more collaborative than many realize.
William Breeden (One Physics), Dr. Paul Haney (Banner Health), and Chris Mitchell (Kettering Health) represent different paths into the field, but agree on a common belief: radiation safety isn’t owned by one person — it’s a team sport.
At its core, the radiation safety officer (RSO) ensures the safe use of radiation for patients and staff. But in practice, their role stretches much further, from training and compliance to equipment oversight, dose monitoring, and real-time problem solving.
More critically, RSOs can’t do it alone. Imaging directors, technologists, physicists, and administrators all play a part. When those relationships are strong, safety programs thrive. When they’re not, gaps appear quickly.
As imaging grows more advanced and new therapies emerge, safety programs must evolve too. For imaging leaders, a path forward involves building strong relationships, distributing responsibility, and fostering a culture where safety belongs to everyone.

In this episode, Dr. Thomas Griglock, executive director at Lucere and former associate professor at OHSU, shares a candid look at the growing imbalance in medical physics workloads. As imaging volumes climb, technology advances accelerate, and workforce pipelines tighten, physicists are spending more time on routine compliance and equipment-related tasks — leaving less capacity for higher-impact problem-solving and innovation.
The conversation examines how this shift contributes to burnout and limits the ability of imaging teams to fully realize the promise of AI. While automation is often positioned as a solution, Dr. Griglock explains why adoption remains challenging in practice, particularly when clinical teams lack the time and resources to implement and oversee new tools effectively.
Drawing on experience across academia, clinical operations, and industry, he also highlights the risks of decision-making that excludes key stakeholders and underscores the importance of rethinking staffing models, training pathways, and leadership alignment to support sustainable innovation.
