METHOD FOR PROVIDING ADAPTIVE HANGING PROTOCOLS FOR IMAGE READING
First Claim
1. A method for adapting a hanging protocol based on an efficiency of use, said method including:
- monitoring usage information for a hanging protocol, said usage information including at least one of a selection of a hanging protocol and a change to said hanging protocol by a first user during a reading of an imaging study;
determining a productivity factor based on an efficiency of said first user during said reading of said imaging study; and
recommending at least one of said selection and said change to a second user based on said productivity factor.

Abstract
Embodiments of the presently described technology provide a method for adapting a hanging protocol based on an efficiency of use. The method includes monitoring usage information for a hanging protocol, determining a productivity factor based on an efficiency of a first user during a reading of an imaging study, and recommending at least one of a hanging protocol selection and a hanging protocol change to a second user based on the productivity factor. The usage information includes at least one of a selection of a hanging protocol and a change to the hanging protocol by a first user during the reading of the imaging study.
