Head X-rays are used to visualize the skeletal system and surrounding structures of the head. This method is typically used to observe the bones and synovial spaces in the head. Head X-ray reporting refers to the service wherein specialty radiologists observe, analyze, and interpret head MRI scans remotely. These services enable healthcare institutions provide timely care to their patients.

What Does Head X-Ray Reporting Cover?

Skull:

The skull is the physical, protective layer that encases the brain. Trauma to this structure directly affects the brain's functioning. A head x-ray helps detect irregular margins, lytic areas, sclerotic areas, widened sutures, premature fusion, and asymmetry.

Paranasal sinuses:

Paranasal sinuses are hollow spaces around the nose that are concave in the skull. These structures are prone to abnormalities like opacification, air-fluid level, mucosal thickening, wall erosion, and reduced aeration. A head x-ray is effective in detecting fluid levels, tissue density, and sinus aeration.

Facial skeleton:

The facial skeleton is the area that houses the main sensory organs. This area can be affected by displacement, fragmentation, step deformity, and malalignment. Using a head x-ray, misalignment, structural integrity, traumatic deformity, etc.

Workflow

When the patient arrives at the medical care center, a clinician attends to them and records their medical and health-related information.

Based on this information, a radiological examination is selected for the patient.

The head X-ray scan is conducted on-site by a technician.

After the MRI scans are obtained, these images, along with the patient’s clinical data, are sent to Statim Healthcare.

At Statim, according to the patient’s requirement, a suitable radiology specialist is selected.

The radiologist carefully observes the MRI scans for abnormalities or deformities.

These findings are correlated with the patient’s clinical information to accurately predict the etiology of the disease.

The radiologist prepares a report consisting of the diagnostic conclusions and electronically signs them.

This report is encrypted and sent to the medical care unit using the institutional PACS/RIS for better data security.
