Abstract
The complexity of large multispecialty medical centers and lack of direct interaction of the radiologist with clinicians has led to underappreciation of the needs of ordering providers by radiology, and elucidated system limitations of radiology by ordering providers. By involving a team of frontline clinicians, our team standardized the process of identifying, ordering, procuring, interpreting, and communicating results of true STAT examinations. The process created by our team now serves as a template for implementation in other locations and service lines of our hospital.
