Clinical Decision Support (CDS) for Outpatient Radiology Imaging

Stopped early · Not applicable

Conditions studied: CT and MR Image Orders

In brief

The goal of the study is to determine whether clinical decision support (CDS) affects the number, type, or appropriateness of targeted high-cost radiology images (i.e. MR and CT) ordered. The CDS will be delivered in Epic through ACRSelect software, which is a leading decision support tool based on the American College of Radiology (ACR) Appropriateness Criteria (see http://www.acr.org/Quality-Safety/Appropriateness-Criteria), and presents the ACR appropriateness scores for each image on a scale of 1-9 with 1-3 labelled as 'usually not appropriate', 4-6 'May be appropriate', and 7-9 'usually appropriate'.
