Utilization of a cloud-based radiology analytics platform to monitor imaging volumes at a large tertiary center.

Rationale And Objective: In this study, we evaluate the ability of a novel cloud-based radiology analytics platform to continuously monitor imaging volumes at a large tertiary center following institutional protocol and policy changes.

Materials And Methods: We evaluated response to environmental factors through the lens of the COVID-19 pandemic. Analysis involved 11 CT/18 MR imaging systems at a large tertiary center.

Demystifying the CT Radiation Dose Sheet.

The radiation dose sheet generated by the CT scanner is a form that displays important information about an examination. It functions as a road map for the examination, detailing what CT examinations were performed and what parameters were used to perform them. One essential element of the radiation dose sheet, the volume CT dose index (CTDI), is a commonly used radiation dose index that is displayed on most CT scanners.
