Selecting Reading Slots

A chief radiologist typically uses a scheduling program to create a schedule that specifies the reading slot allocations for each radiologist for all work shifts. The radiologists then select their assigned reading slots accordingly in InteleViewer. When a radiologist selects his or her assigned reading slot for the current work shift, the IAE automatically starts to assign orders in the worklist.

To select a reading slot:

  1. Log in to InteleViewer.

    The Reading Slot Selection window appears.

  2. To display only the unoccupied reading slots, enable Show Only Available Reading Slots.
  3. To see if the occupancy of reading slots has changed, click the Refresh button.
  4. To select the reading slot assigned for your current work shift, do one of the following:

    • Double-click the required reading slot in the list.
    • Left-click the required reading slot in the list, and then click Select.

    The InteleViewer worklist appears, and after 30 seconds displays a list of orders that have been assigned to this reading slot by the IAE.

    The reading slot that you are currently occupying appears as a button with a green rectangular icon located above the filters in the worklist. You can click this button to display the Reading Slot Selection window.
