The “Radiology Reset Button” has been pressed!

17th June 2020 18:00 - 21:30 (GMT+01:00) Europe/London

FREE virtual event – Wednesday 17 June 18:00-21:30 BST

In February 2020, the NHS faced radiology backlogs stretching into the thousands across the country. Fast forward 3 months and due to focus on the COVID-19 pandemic and ‘clearing the decks’, practically every radiology department in the UK have been able to play catch up and are now virtually “Hot Reporting”. The questions now are…. How can we maintain this position of “zero backlog”? How can capacity best be utilised? What can Radiology do to ensure that an outcome will always reach the patient whilst the management of their condition can still be affected?

“The Radiology Reset Button has been pressed” aims to offer Radiology Managers, Clinical Directors, Radiologists & Radiographers thoughts on how they can look to approach imaging & oncology services differently to how they did pre-pandemic. For example; has the reset button allowed “radiology” time to plan and think more innovatively about how it will tackle issues around workforce and workflow (particularly to accommodate the cleaning of equipment & social distancing measures)? Have we become more amenable to technology and is there now room to introduce areas of service & quality improvement to better “Turnaround Times”, reduce practices such as auto-reporting and deliver greater control on the throughput of a department?

This “free to view, CPD accredited” Study Evening will bring together leading experts from across Radiology and the rest of Healthcare including; The SCoR, RCR, HEIs, HEE & NHSE/I, to offer their insights & opinions on what opportunity we have in this moment to introduce a new way of delivering imaging services as well as look at how departments can manage COVID-19 alongside routine patients and those whose treatment has been delayed? Will we become less or more “risk averse”?

What will radiology look like now the “Radiology Reset Button” has been pressed? We look forward to you joining us.
