Factors affecting the adoption of cloud computing based-medical imaging by healthcare professionals
Abstract
Cloud computing, the new paradigm, is well utilized in business and education but not in healthcare. In healthcare realm, cloud computing offers the chance to provide patient-oriented care. This study aims to investigate factors affecting the adoption of cloud computing based medical imaging solutions by health care professionals. Multiple regressions test was used in order to test the research hypothesis and come up with research result. According to multiple regressions test, the results of the study illustrates that there is a statistically significant impact of all independent variables (perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, perceived risk, performance and availability) except for institutional trust and compatibility on the dependent variable of intention to use. Results indicate the impact and the importance of the independent variables and explain the important role of these factors on the intention of users to use cloud computing solutions in the medical sector. Additionally, these findings support findings of some previous related studies. Based on these results, research in the medical sector should pay more attention for these factors.
