Faster Care ER

Faster Radiology Care for Critical Patients

Rising volume and a national radiologist shortage challenge every practice. Only vRad uses four unique strategies, including AI, to deliver faster care for critical patients.

Saving Minutes When Seconds Matter

Reducing Turnaround Time for 180,000+ Critical Patients Annually.

Rapid
Detection

Four strategies—including AI algorithms—are applied to each arriving study for immediate prioritization.

Immediate
Prioritization

High priority studies are distributed to all available radiologists and must be read next.

Auto-Dialed Physician Calls

Saving precious time, critical findings detected in the dictation by natural language processing automatically trigger a radiologist call to the referring physician.

Four Unique Strategies

Strategy 1: Artificial Intelligence Prioritization

vRad AI models automatically prioritize 14% of all critical findings entering our system, detecting pathologies such as intracranial hemorrhage, pulmonary embolism, and epidural lesions.

Strategy 2: Stroke Protocol

Stroke protocol orders automatically receive our highest priority, resulting in turnaround times under 7 minutes on average—even through periods of peak demand. Over 250 certified stroke centers nationwide trust our services, with more than 130,000 stroke studies and 8,700 CT perfusion studies interpreted annually.

Strategy 3: Trauma Protocol

This unique workflow automatically separates images into anatomical groups—enabling multiple radiologists to read neuro, body, and extremity studies simultaneously for faster results. Trauma protocol turnaround times consistently average under 12 minutes.

Strategy 4: Procedure-Based Prioritization

vRad uses decades of historical data to prioritize procedures most likely to contain critical findings. This data-driven approach has improved turnaround times for half of all confirmed critical findings.

For this patient, I have no doubt AI was a critical element for her survival. AI is helping us deliver on the full scope of our health care mission.

Critical Findings
Beyond the Standard

Critical findings are time-sensitive pathologies that demand immediate verbal results. Leveraging 20+ years of emergency radiology expertise, vRad identifies a broader range of critical findings than standard guidelines—helping more patients get rapid care.

Hidden Threats
In Routine Imaging

vRad’s AI also detects critical findings in non-emergent imaging, when scans are ordered for unrelated reasons. Each year, it prioritizes 14,000+ cases, including 1,200 intracranial hemorrhages, 200 pulmonary emboli, and 20 aortic dissections—often accelerating care by hours compared to standard, non-emergent turnaround times.

vRad AI software does not provide diagnostic or treatment information or recommendations. Studies are not flagged for the radiologist in any way to indicate that an AI model has identified a likelihood of the presence of any pathology.  AI functionality is intended for prioritization and quality assurance, and is not intended to triage, diagnose, treat, mitigate, or cure any disease or condition. Accuracy, recall, precision, and false negatives vary by AI model.
