Radiology Reporting

Standardized reports and critical value notifications to close the diagnostic loop.

  • Technique: Description of how the scan was performed.
  • Findings: The objective observations of the radiologist.
  • Impression: The final diagnostic conclusion and recommendations.

Critical Findings protocol

If the radiologist identifies a life-threatening finding (e.g., tension pneumothorax or massive stroke):

  1. Priority Flag: The report is flagged with a red "Critical" alert.
  2. Automated Notification:ordering physician and the floor nurse receive instant push notifications.
  3. Escalation: The system tracks the time to acknowledgment and escalates to the department head if not reviewed within 5 minutes.
Electronic Acknowledgment

Referring physicians must electronically acknowledge critical findings, providing a permanent audit trail of communication for patient safety.
