Abstract
There is great potential for artificial intelligence (AI) applications, especially machine learning and natural language processing, in medical imaging. Much attention has been garnered by the image analysis tasks for diagnostic decision support and precision medicine, but there are many other potential applications of AI in radiology and have potential to enhance all levels of the radiology workflow and practice, including workflow optimization and support for interpretation tasks, quality and safety, and operational efficiency. This article reviews the important potential applications of informatics and AI related to process improvement and operations in the radiology department.

Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major health and socioeconomic problem globally that is associated with a high level of mortality. Early and accurate diagnosis and prognosis of TBI is important in patient management and preventing any secondary injuries. Computer tomography (CT) imaging assists physicians in diagnosing injury and guiding treatment. One of the clinical parameters extracted from CT images is midline shift, a measure of linear displacement in brain structure, which is correlated with TBI patient outcomes. However, only a tiny fraction of the overall tissue displacement is quantified through this parameter. In this paper, a novel measurement of overall mid-surface shift is proposed that quantifies the total volume of brain tissue shifted across the midline. When compared to traditional midline shift, mid-surface shift has a stronger correlation with TBI patient outcomes.
