title: Monitoring department efficiency and quality.
abstract: Effective radiology management requires accurate, timely data about the ongoing operation of a department. Computers provide a method to assemble detailed information, and well-designed management reports can then provide the department administrator with summarized information that can be useful in identifying problems and initiating changes to reduce costs and improve the quality of patient care.
