The World Health Organization stated that approximately two-thirds
of the world's population lacks adequate access to medical imaging.
The scarcity of imaging services in developing regions contributes
to a widening disparity of health care and limits global public
health programs that require imaging. Radiology is an important
component of many global health programs, including those that
address tuberculosis, AIDS-related disease, trauma, occupational
and environmental exposures, breast cancer screening, and
maternal-infant health care. There is a growing need for medical
imaging in global health efforts and humanitarian outreach,
particularly as an increasing number of academic, government, and
non-governmental organizations expand delivery of health care to
disadvantaged people worldwide. To systematically deploy clinical
imaging services to low-resource settings requires contributions
from a variety of disciplines such as clinical radiology,
epidemiology, public health, finance, radiation physics,
information technology, engineering, and others. This book will
review critical concepts for those interested in managing,
establishing, or participating in a medical imaging program for
resource-limited environments and diverse cross-cultural contexts
undergoing imaging technology adaptation.
