Radiology and ECG

Reconcile an imaging study

Available to

Radiology users and the radiology / health-information manager.

Studies normally link to their order on arrival by accession number, patient and facility. A study that does not match is quarantined and cannot be used for care until two authorised people reconcile it.

Reconcile

  1. Open Radiology and ECG → Study Reconciliation. Quarantined studies show Study Reconciliation State Quarantined.
  2. Select the study and read the Quarantine Reason.
  3. Choose the correct Proposed Order (it must match the study's patient, facility and accession context) and select Propose Reconciliation.
  4. A second authorised person, who is not the person who proposed it, selects Approve Reconciliation. The study is linked to the order.
  5. To refuse the proposal, enter the Rejection Reason and select Reject Reconciliation.
