What does Study Status refer to in the imaging workflow?

Study Status refers to the tracking of an order throughout the imaging workflow. This encompasses all stages of the process from the initial order entry to the completion of the imaging study, allowing healthcare professionals to monitor where a particular order stands at any given point in time. By tracking Study Status, clinicians and staff can ensure that imaging requests are processed efficiently, identify bottlenecks, and enhance communication among team members regarding a patient's imaging needs.

This tracking capability is critical for maintaining workflow efficiency and ensuring timely patient care, as it allows for prompt follow-up and resolution of any issues that may arise during the imaging process.
