GE HealthCare Showcases Advanced Enterprise Imaging Innovations to Combat Burnout and Improve Radiology Workflow at SIIM 2025
GE HealthCare a global leader in medical technology and digital health, will highlight its latest advancements in enterprise imaging at the Society for Imaging Informatics in Medicine (SIIM) 2025 Annual Meeting, taking place in Portland, Oregon. With a focus on improving workflow efficiency, reducing clinician burnout, and delivering better outcomes for patients, the company’s newest solutions reflect its broader vision of transforming the future of imaging informatics.
Confronting the Crisis of Radiologist Burnout
GE Burnout among healthcare professionals remains one of the most pressing challenges in the radiology community. A 2024 Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) survey of over 13,000 radiologists revealed alarming statistics: 49% reported experiencing professional burnout, with 60% citing excessive bureaucratic tasks—such as documentation, administrative overhead, and system navigation—as the leading cause. One-third of respondents attributed their burnout to long working hours and lack of personal autonomy, while 28% expressed frustration with electronic medical records (EMRs) and disconnected systems.
GE Workflow In response, GE Workflow HealthCare is delivering solutions aimed at streamlining workflows, reducing inefficiencies, and empowering radiologists with tools that facilitate faster, more accurate, and less burdensome diagnostic processes. The company’s next-generation enterprise imaging innovations—spanning AI-powered analytics, cloud-native platforms, and deep integration with digital pathology—seek to address these systemic issues.
Native Integration of Pace and Balance into GE HealthCare PACS
One of the most anticipated developments to be showcased at SIIM 2025 is the integration of Pace and Balance into GE HealthCare’s True PACS and Centricity PACS platforms. These two advanced modules are designed to optimize case distribution and elevate radiologist productivity by leveraging predictive analytics and dynamic workload balancing.
Pace focuses on increasing a radiologist’s reading capacity by predicting optimal reading times and enabling the prioritization of cases. This allows clinicians to maximize throughput while maintaining diagnostic accuracy. Balance, Workflow on the other hand, ensures that workloads are distributed equitably among the radiology team, minimizing fatigue and promoting fairness in task allocation. Together, these tools aim to enhance both individual and team performance, reducing the stress associated with uneven case volumes or last-minute backlogs.
“Radiologists are eager for the latest tools to keep up with an ever-increasing case load,” said Scott Miller, CEO of Enterprise Imaging Solutions at GE HealthCare. “As GE HealthCare takes the lead on natively integrating Pace and Balance into our PACS platforms, we are reinforcing our long-standing commitment to support radiologists with smart enterprise imaging solutions. This is about delivering workflow efficiency, clinical clarity, and ultimately, better patient care.”
Genesis: A Cloud-Enabled Imaging Ecosystem
Another focal point of GE HealthCare’s SIIM 2025 presence is the Genesis portfolio, a suite of cloud-enabled imaging informatics solutions developed to modernize healthcare infrastructure while improving speed, interoperability, and accessibility.
Genesis is designed for hospitals and health systems looking to consolidate, Workflow centralize, and streamline imaging workflows across multiple departments or locations. Its cloud-ready architecture supports both full-cloud and hybrid deployment models, offering flexibility for health systems with diverse IT needs. By enabling centralized data storage and seamless image access, Genesis eliminates silos that often delay care and complicate diagnostics.
Key capabilities of the Genesis platform include:
- Automated workflow orchestration, which reduces Workflow manual intervention and administrative bottlenecks.
- Cross-specialty interoperability, making patient images and data accessible to radiologists, oncologists, pathologists, and surgeons.
- User-centric design tailored to improve experiences for both clinical users and IT administrators.
- Scalability and cost-efficiency, helping institutions reduce infrastructure costs while increasing performance and resilience.
Hospitals deploying Genesis have reported gains in diagnostic speed, data accuracy, and IT productivity, making it a compelling solution for both operational leaders and clinicians.
Enterprise Data Management with Datalogue
GE HealthCare’s enterprise imaging strategy also Workflow emphasizes data governance and cybersecurity, as digital health environments become more interconnected and vulnerable to breaches. At SIIM 2025, the company will demonstrate its Datalogue solution, a platform designed for secure, centralized management of patient records and clinical datasets.
Datalogue provides robust features such as:
- Secure access control to ensure only authorized personnel can view or edit sensitive patient information.
- Data normalization and cleansing tools to reduce inconsistencies and improve downstream analytics.
- Audit trails and version control for tracking data usage and changes over time.
- Collaboration tools that allow cross-departmental teams to annotate, discuss, and share imaging records without compromising data integrity.
In a healthcare ecosystem where data fragmentation is a constant challenge, Datalogue plays a critical role in unifying information streams to support informed clinical decisions and patient-centric care.
Digital Pathology Meets Enterprise Imaging: CaloPix Integration
A particularly exciting development is GE HealthCare’s integration of Tribun Health’s IMS CaloPix® digital pathology platform with its Enterprise Archive. This advancement bridges a long-standing gap between pathology and radiology, offering clinicians a more holistic view of the patient journey.
CaloPix is a powerful digital pathology solution that enables high-resolution image visualization, annotation, and AI-assisted diagnosis. With its integration into the GE HealthCare ecosystem, pathologists can now:
- Seamlessly access pathology slides and metadata alongside radiological images and patient histories.
- Collaborate with other specialists—such as oncologists and surgeons—without switching platforms.
- Accelerate diagnosis in time-sensitive cases, such as cancer treatment planning, by accessing both pathology and radiology data from a single interface.
This integration supports a more unified, multidisciplinary diagnostic approach, which is especially crucial in complex fields like oncology, where accurate, time-efficient decision-making can significantly influence treatment outcomes.
A Broader Vision: Supporting the Radiology Community
The technological innovations GE HealthCare is showcasing at SIIM 2025 are not merely about speed or efficiency—they are part of a broader mission to empower healthcare professionals and improve human health outcomes.
By addressing burnout through intelligent workload balancing, enabling data-driven collaboration, and streamlining system operations with cloud-native platforms, GE HealthCare is positioning itself at the forefront of digital transformation in imaging. Each innovation reflects a deliberate strategy: to reduce barriers that slow clinicians down and to create environments where technology supports, rather than hinders, clinical excellence.
With radiology volumes increasing and the demand for precision diagnostics on the rise, these solutions could not come at a more critical time.
