Abstrakt: The increasing demand for diagnostic imaging has added to the radiologists' workload, highlighting the shortcomings of conventional computer mice. Radiologists grapple with inefficiencies from frequent mouse clicks and keyboard shortcuts required for various PACS functions. These inefficiencies contribute to cognitive strain, errors, and repetitive strain injuries. High-performance gaming mice, known for their precision in the gaming world, offer multiple custom buttons and superior tracking. These features can streamline radiology tasks. Utilizing a gaming mouse tailored for radiology tasks can substantially enhance efficiency. Our guide offers a step-by-step approach to harnessing the gaming mouse's capabilities for radiology tasks, ensuring radiologists can enhance their workflow and minimize injury risks. Although the guide uses a Logitech gaming mouse for demonstration, it is designed to be intuitive, helping users adapt to their unique needs across different modalities, subspecialties, and various radiology viewer software. Importantly, its fundamental concepts are transferrable to other mouse brands or models with similar customization software.
