No, the above comment (not article) mentions screenshots. If I have an x-ray of someone on my screen along with patient name then how is that not personal information that could be screen shotted and sent to some endpoint?

Even if the contents of the radiology scan are not included, the mere fact that someone _had_ a radiology scan or any other medical procedure or exam might be important.

Insurance might be interested, for one party. Or parents. Or pimps.

That would be. Is there evidence screenshots like this are being sent?
