New Article To Be Published on Trends in Radiology Design and Operations
For Immediate Release (06/10/09)
New Article to Be Published on Trends in Radiology Design and Operations
Bernstein & Associates, Architects is pleased to announce the upcoming publication of an article on recent trends in radiology design and radiology planning.
The article will be published in the July 2009 edition of Hospital Newspaper.
The article discusses the latest trends in radiology design and radiology planning, including the following issues:
- The fields of radiology and design for radiology have undergone numerous changes due to groundbreaking advances in technology,
- Development of digital imaging and PACS (picture archiving and communication systems)
- Rethinking the radiology environment from the point of view of patients, radiologist and staff, with the general goals of radiology facilities which increase patient and staff comfort, patient privacy, staff safety, and greater efficiency, speed, and through-put in the radiology workflow..
- Significant increases in worker productivity and improvements in the radiology workflow
- Eliminating film developing facilities, and also eliminating --- or at least drastically reducing --- the need for physical storage of hard copy films.
- Increases in legibility and reliability of scans
- Quicker responsiveness to patients.
- Reading room design.
- Ergonometrics for the new digital reading room
- Contemporary reading room must allow for future adaptability.
- Making the radiologists’ reading stations more comfortable, easier to use, and allowing for more control over the environment. Some more specific reading room design initiatives are listed below:
- Limiting Distractions
- Climate Control
- Seating and Positioning Adjustability
- Lighting specifications
- Unification of Systems
- Advances in scanning technologies. Among the most significant: 3.0T MRI’s are the upcoming standard in MRI design, multi-slice CT’s are the same for cat scan design, and digital mammography in the latest in mammography design.
- Mobile scanning equipment, such as portable CT
- Improvements in patient’s experience
- Philips “Ambient Experience”
- Relative growth of private practice radiology over academic, hospital-based radiology
- Opportunities for further development and improvement in the design of radiology facilities
- Patient comfort within the scanning machines s
- Advantages to separating healthy outpatients from very sick inpatients
- Separating women into a women’s center vs. co-mingling male and female throughout
- How the equipment will be changed out in future vs. concern exclusively with initial equipment access to space
- Green design --- eco-friendly design that is good for the environment as well as the patient --- is working its way through the healthcare environment, including the radiology department.
- Increased use of interventional radiology and surgical codes

New Article Published on Radiology Facility Planning and Design
For Immediate Release (05/27/09)
Bernstein & Associates, Architects is pleased to announce the publication of an article on how the concept of universal room design can address the commonplace problem that decision-making on the purchase of major medical equipment often lags the schedule for upfront planning and design of the radiology department or radiology practice.
The article has been published in the June 2009 edition of Hospital Newspaper.
The article is entitled: “Utilizing Universal Room Design in Fast Track Healthcare Projects Involving Major Medical Equipment Purchases”.
The article discusses the latest trends in radiology design and radiology planning, including the following issues:
- Why does the architect need the equipment specs for radiology room design?
- Types of engineering infrastructure involved in a radiology project
- What happens when radiologists and/or radiology administrators change their minds about equipment specifications
- How much impact do changes to medical equipment specifications have on a design and construction project schedule and budget?
- If you do change your mind about a major medical equipment purchase, when is the best time to do it?
- How can the design of what is called a "universal room" mitigate to some degree the costs (both financial and in terms of schedule delay) of equipment changes.

Women's Center Design Client Honored by NYWA Dot Med News December 03, 2008
Women's Center Design Client Honored by NYWADot Med News
December 03, 2008
Bernstein & Associates, Architects is pleased to announce that one of its clients for women's center design --- Dr. Jane Tuvia --- is being honored by The New York Women's Agenda at their annual Star Breakfast being held on Tuesday, December 9.
According to the announcement from NYWA, "it is proud to honor Dr. Tuvia, who, as you know, is committed to women's health and opened Madison Avenue Women's Imaging in order to give women the best possible care, emphasizing that early detection through screening is the key tool in the battle against cancer."
Bernstein & Associates, Architects was the architect of the Madison Avenue Women's Imaging, on Madison Avenue at 38th Street, in Manhattan. The project involved design and construction of a state-of-the-art, multi-modality women's center --- including integrated design of rooms for mammography, ultrasound, bone densitometry, and a 1.5T GE MRI --- all designed to support the professional, caring approach that has contributed to the success of Dr. Tuvia's practice.
About the NYWA:
Through its strong network of women's organizations, NYWA helps women from all walks of life attain brighter futures. The Star Breakfast serves as NYWA's primary fundraiser. NYWA is known for its commitment to bettering the lives of women in New York. By supporting NYWA, you will not only be acknowledging the fight against breast cancer, but will also be supporting NYWA's effort to empower women.
