With the advent of technology, fast and accurate management of patient can now be done. The process before when requesting an X-ray took long hours (at least 6 hours) for the physician to have the official result. In our setting, X-ray results can be seen by requesting physician in less than an hour.
Since we have a digital X-ray in the diagnostic clinic, it makes the X-ray processing fast. Once the X-ray procedure is performed, the X-ray image is sent to the radiologist right a way through email. The radiologist set up a ringing tone on his phone exclusively for the emails sent by the diagnostic clinic He opens the mails, reads the image and sends back the result to the clinic through email. Within 30 minutes the patient can have the result. The X-ray image and X-ray result can be also be forwarded to the requesting physician through email for fast management.
With the new process now, the turn around time for the procedure was reduced, making patients' waiting time for the results shortened and proper management can be instituted immediately.
