This guide explains how to use the Diagnostics Pending Review screen to view a technologist's notes and images, add your interpretation, and acknowledge the result so nothing is missed.
Who can use this: The Diagnostics Pending Review screen is available to users with the Doctor and Senior Doctor roles.
Open the screen
From the Home screen, click Diagnostics Pending Review.
How the screen is organized
Results move through three tabs as they're worked on:
Administered – exams completed by the technologist, waiting for interpretation. Your action: Interpret Results.
Resulted – exams that have been interpreted, waiting for acknowledgement. Your action: Acknowledge.
Acknowledged – completed reviews. View only.
Use the filters at the top to narrow the list by Category (e.g. X-Ray), Order Name, or date. The date defaults to today; click the date to choose another day or the x to clear it.
Steps
1. Review the technologist's work
Click the red Notes icon in the patient's row. You'll see the Technologist note with the time and author, plus any images. Click an image's file name to open it full size.
2. Interpret the results
On the Administered tab, click Interpret Results. Type your findings in the Note box, optionally click + to attach a file, and click Save. This is saved as a Radiology Interpretation note and the exam moves to the Resulted tab.
Important: Always interpret a result before acknowledging it. Although an Acknowledge button also appears on the Administered tab, don't use it there. Acknowledge only from the Resulted tab.
3. Acknowledge the result
On the Resulted tab, open the Notes icon to read both the Technologist note and the Radiology Interpretation. Then click Acknowledge, enter your note (for example, the plan or next steps), optionally attach a file, and click Save. This is saved as a Diagnosis note and the exam moves to the Acknowledged tab.
Tip: Save stays greyed out until you've typed a note.
Confirm that it worked
Open the Acknowledged tab and click the Notes icon. You'll see the full history, newest first: Diagnosis, Radiology Interpretation, and Technologist, each with its author, time, and attachments.
Common issues
I can't find a result: Check the date filter; it only shows one day at a time. Also check the other tabs, since the result may have already moved on.
I don't see the Diagnostics Pending Review tile: The screen is only available to the Doctor and Senior Doctor roles. Contact your administrator if you need access.
No images in the Notes window: They may still be loading, so wait a few seconds. Scroll down within the Notes window for longer histories. If there are still no images, the technologist may not have attached any.
