The increasing age of the US population is increasing the demand for healthcare services for elderly patients. However, elderly patients, particularly those over the age of 75, may encounter unique challenges when seeking healthcare services, including radiological imaging. Radiology practices need to recognize the needs of this cohort and develop strategies to provide elderly patients with compassionate, high quality care. In this article, we highlight obstacles that elderly patients may face in undergoing imaging examinations, and approaches that radiology practices may take in addressing these. (c) 2019 Elsevier Inc.
