In order to respond effectively to any radiological emergencies, the implementation of disaster management practices is an essential and invaluable aspect. It can be difficult to know in advance exactly what you will be facing when you go to help people in a disaster situation brought about by hurricanes, earthquakes and other events, but the more compact medical technology you can bring in with you, the more you can accurately diagnose and assist those in need. Our disaster plans need to be programmatic, flexible, and should be continuously reviewed and updated. Within a few minutes of a disaster operationalize hospital support for the initial treatment of several injured patients and for ongoing care up to many hours is required. The Radiology Department is at the forefront of patient care in emergency situations, such as mass casualty incidents and natural disasters, providing critical diagnostic services to prioritize and triage patient needs. Radiological imaging is critical for improving patient outcomes and lowering morbidity and mortality, from detecting potentially fatal injuries to guiding surgical procedures. Radiologic technologists, radiologists, nurses, and other paramedic staff must actively participate in patient care. This paper provides an overview of the comprehensive strategy needed to maximize the radiology department’s preparedness and response for disasters.

Although numerous AI algorithms have been published, the relatively small number of algorithms used clinically is partly due to the difficulty of implementing AI seamlessly into the clinical workflow for radiologists and for their healthcare enterprise. The authors developed an AI orchestrator to facilitate the deployment and use of AI tools in a large multi-site university healthcare system and used it to conduct opportunistic screening for hepatic steatosis. During the 60-day study period, 991 abdominal CTs were processed at multiple different physical locations with an average turnaround time of 2.8 min. Quality control images and AI results were fully integrated into the existing clinical workflow. All input into and output from the server was in standardized data formats. The authors describe the methodology in detail; this framework can be adapted to integrate any clinical AI algorithm.
