Abstract

Improved systems and devices for medical imaging distribution are provided. A medical imaging order may be received from a medical facility that includes medical imaging. A configuration may be selected and applied based on a body site and an urgency field associated with the order that defines queueing rules for the medical imaging order. Utilization factors for queues associated with radiologists may also be determined. The configuration and the utilization factors may be used to determine a subset of queues associated with a subset of radiologists. The subset of queues may be prioritized based on certain requirements, such as how many medical imaging reports a particular radiologist is required to review, how many medical imaging reports are required to be allocated to a particular radiologist, and the like. The highest prioritized queue may be selected and the medical imaging order may be transmitted to the radiologist associated with that queue.

Dependent claims

A system comprising:

one or more processing devices communicatively couplable to one or more servers and a plurality of nodes via one or more networks;
and
memory communicatively coupled to the one or more processing devices, the memory storing instructions which when executed by the one or more processing devices, cause the one or more processing devices to perform operations comprising:
receiving, from a communication device at a first node of the plurality of nodes, a request associated with a subset of a plurality of data files stored in a database, wherein:
the subset comprises a physiological image, and
the request comprises a source identifier and a plurality of metadata elements related to the physiological image;
extracting the source identifier from the request;
querying a lookup table to identify a source server associated with the source identifier;
translating at least one metadata element of the plurality of metadata elements into a record identifier;
establishing a data link with the source server at a second node of the plurality of nodes;
querying the source server for the subset using the record identifier;
and
causing transmitting of a status indication of the subset over the one or more networks.
