Core Tip

Core Tip: The introduction of a dedicated consult shift, integrated with real-time dashboard surveillance, represents a pragmatic and scalable strategy to address delays in resolving diagnostic disagreements. The substantial reductions in resolution time reported by Virarkar et al highlight how structured accountability and workflow redesign can strengthen radiology quality assurance without compromising diagnostic rigor.
