Standard #5:
Automatically double-read all high risk studies

Because certain cases are more complicated in nature, Radisphere automatically routes high-risk cases for concurrent review.

Radisphere’s innovative peer review program serves as a powerful source of data to identify those radiology examinations that are most high-risk in nature. Using these results we have isolated the studies that are most complex and those most likely to lead to a bad patient outcome if interpreted incorrectly. Radisphere’s proprietary software platform automatically routes these high-risk studies for real-time concurrence review by a second radiologist, reducing the possibility of an interpretative error.

This structured, consistent approach helps detect and mitigate diagnostic errors before the patient’s treatment is adversely affected and contributes to the highly accurate interpretations that physicians have come to expect from Radisphere.
