Synopsis

Keywords:

Motivation: A worldwide increase of MRI staff shortage and at the same time an increasing number of MRI requests.

Goal(s): Deployment of remote assist performed by properly trained MRI staff in a single site MRI department.

Approach: After a test period, remote assist was evaluated based on a survey conducted among the MRI staff members.

Results: Due to slow technical performance of the remote assist hardware and software and a normal patient schedule during the test period, the first experience was disappointing. A new test period will be planned where patient scheduling and technical performance will be tested and evaluated again.

Impact: Technical performance of the remote assist hardware and software (direct respond required) and patient scheduling need further improvement.
