Everlight Radiology 20:20 Vision - South Africa Panel Session & Celebration

This session brings together clinical, industry, and technology leaders to explore how teleradiology has transformed over the past 20 years and where it’s headed next.

Our panel will reflect on the innovations, challenges, and defining moments that have shaped the field, from early digital workflows to today’s era of augmented intelligence.

We’ll discuss how AI is enhancing precision while supporting radiologist expertise; the evolving, flexible career models helping to address global burnout; and how data-driven insights are accelerating the shift toward more personalised, proactive patient care. The panel will also examine what it takes to deliver truly global diagnostic accessibility and world-class clinical clarity anywhere in the world.

Looking ahead, our radiologists, partners, and customers will share their perspectives on the next 20 years, highlighting the opportunities and breakthroughs that will define the future of teleradiology.

Dr Charl Hobson

Winelands Radiology

Director

MD, FRANZCR

Dr Charl Hobson is a director and IT Portfolio co-chair at Winelands Radiology, a director at Drs Mfeketho Hobson, and co-founder of TeleRadiology SA. He is a part-time teleradiologist with Everlight Radiology, while Winelands Radiology uses Everlight for after-hours reporting.

These roles give Charl a perspective on teleradiology from several sides: as a private-practice radiologist, service provider and client. As a part-time Karoo farmer who occasionally reports cases remotely from well off the beaten track, he brings a practical perspective to the possibilities of distributed radiology and capacity optimisation. His interests include digital workflow, artificial intelligence and the use of technology to make specialist expertise more accessible and healthcare capacity more flexible.
