Radiology (RIS)

A radiology information system: order imaging, schedule on a modality, acquire images (with PACS links), and have a radiologist report and sign off.

Medical → Radiology (/medical/radiology) shows the scheduled queue, studies awaiting acquisition/report, and those awaiting sign‑off.

Imaging orders

Medical → Radiology → Orders (/medical/radiology/orders) — create an order: patient, procedure, ordering provider, priority (Routine/Urgent/STAT), clinical indication, device/modality, and schedule. Modalities include X‑Ray, CT, MRI, Ultrasound, Mammography, Fluoroscopy, Angiography, PET‑CT, Nuclear, DEXA. Status flows Requested → Scheduled → Patient Arrived → Images Acquired → Reported → Verified (or Cancelled).

Contrast‑allergy safety check

Ordering a contrast study for a patient with a recorded contrast/iodine allergy is flagged at order time, so the team can review before the patient is exposed.

Acquisition & reporting

Report entry (/medical/radiology/orders/{id}/report):

  • Technologist — record technologist, image count, DICOM Study Instance UID, and PACS URL (an Open PACS link to the viewer). Paste the full study link — if you omit the scheme, https:// is added automatically so the link always opens the external viewer (a scheme-less link would otherwise resolve inside the ERP and 404).
  • Radiologist — technique, findings, impression, radiologist name, optional teleradiology flag. Save keeps a draft; Verify signs off, locks the report, and releases it to the EMR.

Procedures & devices

  • Procedures (/medical/radiology/procedures) — define imaging procedures: modality, body part, CPT code, contrast, duration, prep instructions, price.
  • Devices (/medical/radiology/devices) — modality inventory with DICOM AE Title and workstation, for worklist routing and service tracking.

DICOM/PACS aware

Orders carry the DICOM Study UID and a PACS link, and devices carry AE Titles — so the RIS lines up with your imaging worklist and viewer rather than living in isolation.
