Worklist Questions

By

Hey folks, hope this is OK.

Not advertising anything, but I'm working on a radiology worklist for rads/techs, and I was hoping to get some honest feedback from the folks on this subreddit.

Rads:

  • Where do you lose the most time with your current worklist (PACS or otherwise)?

  • Is getting instant updates on your worklist (another user opens the case, begins reading, signs, an ER stat case immediately appears on the list, etc) important or are the generic worklist refreshes I see today something you're OK with?

  • Are your worklists today primarily driven by subspecialty or are they more location based?

  • Is cherry picking from other lists frowned upon by your peers, or is it first come first served?

Techs:

  • Is it useful to see studies on your worklist when a rad determines they need something additional, IE missing scan docs, missing 3D recons, etc, or is this something that would always be handled with a phone call?

  • How do you handle your QA issues (like the ones mentioned above) today?

  • When a patient is ready to be imaged, is there positive handoff between departments, or an update in your EMR that says patient is ready?

I'm a former PACS admin, so I understood what these questions looked like 10 years ago, but I've been an engineer at a vendor since, and don't have a ton of interaction with end users anymore.

Any feedback is welcome and VERY appreciated.

I got into the Rad Tech program!

By
I just want to share with you that I finally got into the program at our local community college and i’m starting this summer. For context, I’m already 30yo with a prior BS degree and decided on a career change. During the pandemic until this semester, I took my time to take all the pre-reqs and GEs required while working. I also volunteered at a hospital for over a year. It was optional due to COVID, but I still did it to get the brownie points. I finally applied last March 2023 and received good news last Friday. The program is based on a pointing system, so I think having good grades really mattered. It was my first time applying and the only program I applied to. I didn’t know it was possible to get in on your first try because of all of the stories I’ve been reading, so don’t lose hope because it’s possible! Wishing everyone who’s applying this year good luck. You can do this! If you have questions, I will do my best to answer them 😊 also if you have tips on how to survive this ...

Do rad techs/sonographers deal with vomit often?

By
Hi there! I’m currently considering going to school to be a rad tech or sonographer but I’m struggling to find out if you guys deal with vomit a lot. I am emetophobic (phobia of vomit) and, while I think I’d like these jobs a lot, it does worry me to think about having to deal with it often. Thank you for your help! submitted by /u/pootscoot1 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/p5y0aa/do_rad_techssonographers_deal_with_vomit_often/
