Abstract
The use of teleradiology to interpret off-hours inpatient imaging serves as an important process improvement tool in decreasing the time to preliminary written reports for CT pulmonary angiographic studies. By establishing agreed-on time standards for reporting such examinations, radiologists and clinicians can collaborate to ensure the prompt diagnosis and treatment of potentially lethal illnesses, such as pulmonary embolism.
