The impact of the first wave of COVID-19 (Feb-Apr. 2020) on imaging volumes has been widely explored, but responses to a subsequent wave (Oct-Dec. 2020) remain to be investigated. In this study, a cloud-based analytics tool (CBAT) collected monthly CT/MRI scan volumes at a large tertiary center from Oct 2019 to Aug 2021. The first wave of COVID-19 significantly lowered all forms of CT/MRI imaging. The second COVID-19 wave did not significantly impact CT/MRI scan volumes, which remained at pre-pandemic levels during/afterwards. CBAT has the ability to assess impact/response towards two waves of COVID-19 at a large tertiary center.
