Radiologist Reporting and Operational Management for Patients with Suspected COVID-19	2020-06-11		.txt	text/plain	2503	124	36	Methods We developed a departmental guideline for radiologists that specified reporting terminology and required communication for patients with imaging findings suggestive of COVID-19, based on patient test status and imaging indication. Departmental guidelines for reporting and operational workflow for patients with known, clinically suspected, and imaging suspected COVID-19 were developed by a team including radiology leadership, thoracic radiologists, infection control, and hospital leadership ( Figure 1 ). In particular, for clinically unsuspected patients where imaging findings raise the possibility of COVID-19, the guidelines instruct the radiologist to call hospital infection control and alert departmental operations to ensure adequate cleaning and initiate contact tracing. Among these, 1,083 reports (1.4%) contained imaging findings suggestive of COVID-19 in the Impression section; 509 were known COVID-19 positive at the time of interpretation, 516 were suspected, and 58 were reports for unsuspected patients. We developed a departmental reporting and operations guideline for patients with imaging findings suggestive of COVID-19.	./cache/cord-329453-ry1diso2.txt	./txt/cord-329453-ry1diso2.txt
