Five Minutes in Healthcare is a new series we've introduced in HealthCare Business News, where I discuss current events with some of the industry's most influential leaders, as well as innovative thinkers who are working to meet the challenges of the coronavirus pandemic.

Over the last week I have had the pleasure of speaking to Diku Mandavia, Arkadi Stolpner, Tom Mitchell, Bob Bachman and Tom Petrone. Each interview is approximately five minutes long, or a few minutes over five.

In this installment we speak to Dr. Diku Mandavia, chief medical officer of FUJIFILM SonoSite, about the ongoing coronavirus pandemic and the unique diagnostic benefits of point-of-care ultrasound.


In this installment we speak to Dr. Arkadi Stolpner, the CEO of the Medical Institute of Berezin Sergey (MIBS) in St. Petersburg, about the ongoing coronavirus pandemic and the ways it's being dealt with in Russia.


In this installment we speak to Bob Bachman, the senior vice president of Advanced Mobility, a mobile trailer company that was acquired by Kentucky Trailer, about the business impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the mobile imaging trailer market.


In this installment we speak to Tom Mitchell, president of Messe Dusseldorf North America, about the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the trade show industry and why person-to-person meetings will not be going away anytime soon.


In this installment we speak to Tom Petrone, medical physicist and CEO of Petrone and Associates, about the role of medical physicists and how they were impacted by the coronavirus pandemic.
