“…As radiology continues to move from a volume-based to value-based model [14], the necessity for an efficient, integrated, and complete follow-up recommendation monitoring system is vital. Systems such as our recommendation-tracking engine open up the possibilities to assist radiologists with increasing legal/legislative requirements for communication, decrease the number of patients who fail to get clinically indicated follow-up testing, and improve the diagnostic utility of radiology reports by including clinically relevant guidance, all of which will add value to patient care and improve quality metrics across the board.…”

An automated radiology recommendation-tracking engine for incidental focal masses in the liver, pancreas, kidneys, and adrenal glands was launched within our institution in July 2013. For 2 years, the majority of CT, MR, and US examination reports generated within our health system were mined by the engine. However, the need to expand the system beyond the initial four organs was soon identified. In July 2015, the second phase of the system was implemented and expanded to include additional anatomic structures in the abdomen and pelvis, as well as to provide non-radiology and non-imaging options for follow-up. The most frequent organs with incidental findings, outside of the original four, included the ovaries and the endometrium, which also correlated to the most frequently ordered imaging follow-up study of pelvic ultrasound and non-imaging follow-up study of endometrial biopsies, respectively. The second phase expansion has demonstrated new venues for augmenting and improving radiologist roles in optimal communication and management of incidental findings.

“…An emphasis in adult radiology over the last 5 years or so has been to see a few patients a day and to have more physical presence (see David Levin's Radiologic Society of North America president's address from 2014 [3]). This is what we have been doing in pediatric radiology for decades.…”

“…We Need to Be True Physicians True physicians do more than provide episodic care. Radiologists should be the doctor's doctor and function as true consulting physicians (17,18). We are true physicians when we develop personal relationships with referring physicians and welcome interruptions from referring clinicians as a chance to connect around patient care.…”
