    All:

    Reaching out with a question about what content is retained on the typical radiology information system (RIS).See this article from the UK.

    https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5604926/

    Specifically, does your hospital RIS store for the duration of the medical record retention period unofficial communications such as the notes from the radiologic technologist to the radiologist prior to the radiologist's review of the images and the radiologist's authentication of the final interpretive report?

    Thank you for sharing.
