What is the impact on workflow?
Once it is determined what mammograms will be sent for CAD, you should identify someone that can segregate the cases. It is usually the role of the technologist. ICA will provide our signature pink courier bags to transport the mammograms. The technologist will place the mammograms in the pink courier bags, and place the bags in a designated area for pick-up (we recommend the technologist work area). ICA will make sure the courier is aware of the designated pick-up and drop-off area. It is advisable to designate an area to hold the master jackets of patient studies that have been sent for CAD analysis. This will simplify the process once the mammograms are returned for interpretation.
