Managing waiting times in diagnostic medical imaging

Managing waiting times in diagnostic medical imaging

OBJECTIVE This paper aims to analyse the variation in the delivery of diagnostic imaging services in order to suggest possible solutions for the reduction of waiting times, increase the quality of services and reduce financial costs. DESIGN This study provides a logic model to manage waiting times in a regional context. Waiting times measured per day were compared on the basis of the variabil...

Waiting for a Retweet: Modeling Waiting Times in Information Propagation

Social media are increasingly used to disseminate emergency warnings, alerts, and other hazard-related information. In this context, the timing of information propagation is of immediate interest. Time-sensitive information must reach members of the general public before the pertinence of the information expires. In this research we build a preliminary model for the time between information dis...

Medical Imaging and Diagnostic Radiology

Cameras embedded in consumer devices have previously been used as physiological information sensors. The waveform of the photoplethysmographic image (PPGi) signals may be significantly affected by the light spectra and intensity. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the performance of PPGi waveform acquisition in the red, green, and blue channels using a commercial camera in different light...
