- Organizes technology, human resources, and methodology for subspecialized radiologists to report abdominal, neurological, chest, musculoskeletal, breast, and otorhinolaryngology images
- They carry out super-specialized radiological reports, second opinions, ultrasounds and biopsies in situ in the hospitals of the health group, as well as in other health centers, without waiting
The Ribera health group has launched the first super-specialized radiological ring by organ system in Spain, to prepare reports and second opinions, signed by some of the best professionals in abdominal, neurological, chest, musculoskeletal, breast and otorhinolaryngology radiology. No delays or waiting lists, because the study report is done remotely.
The constitution of this radiological ring has made it possible to coordinate technology with human resources and apply the methodology of all the hospitals of the Ribera group, so that hyper-specialized professionals not only report studies but also perform ultrasounds and biopsies in situ when necessary. The team is coordinated by the Doctor Gonzalo Tardaguila, an expert radiologist in diseases of the abdomen at the Ribera Povisa hospital, and has the collaboration of Dr. Julia Camps, who in turn is the corporate head of the Breast Area. The technical coordinator is Enrique López.
Dr. Tardáguila has assured that "with this radiological ring, the Ribera health group expands the coverage provided by our specialist radiologists in each organ-system but, above all, improves the excellence and quality of the service we offer our patients, who have the guarantee that your radiological diagnostic tests are informed by the best in each subspecialty”. “There will be, for example, heart superspecialists who will only report cardiac studies, abdominal experts who will deal with digestive diseases and so on in all areas, Neurology, Breast, Lung, Skeletal Muscle, etc., which is known in the radiological field. as an organ-system”, adds the coordinator of the Radiological Ring of the Ribera group.
In addition, he explains, this Radiological Ring "is going to mean a great advance in radiological organization, because it will enable any hospital, regardless of its size or staffing, to be able to count on top-quality reports issued by the most outstanding experts in the area under study.
Dr. Camps, for her part, highlighted the speed in reporting, the improvement in inter-centre coordination and the wide range of possibilities that this organization offers when it comes to collecting and analyzing more data for multi-centre studies. “It is a great step for the Ribera health group”, she assured.
