24 hours in the life… A typical day in an Imaging Partners Online reporting centre never ends.... ever!

 That’s because cases are reported by radiologists in London, Sydney, Melbourne and Perth using international time zones to ensure that radiologists are always reporting during their ‘awake’ hours from a fully equipped and supported reporting centre. 

 

“I find working from a reporting centre incredibly effective,’ said Dr Charles Lott, who is one of four FRANZCR qualified radiologists based on London reporting for Australian Hospitals. “I arrive at Imaging Partners Online UK focused and ready to work, there are no distractions and I have full secretarial support while I’m working and IT support if I need it. Towards the end of a busy shift, it’s also nice to see my colleagues in Australia logging on and picking up cases.”
 
Dr Jeff Cameron, a FRANZCR and specialist registered radiologist lives in Melbourne and reports for UK hospitals. ”As I have got to know clinicians in the UK, they often comment on the fact that I don’t seem very grumpy for a radiologist working at night,” he laughed. ”They often don’t realise that I’m in Melbourne and working my normal day.”
 
The Imaging Partners Online around the clock, around the world model has been successfully operating for over three years. A universal workflow and excellent IT ensures that cases are always treated identically, ‘day or night’ and that handovers are smooth.
