NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde
qER prioritisation of urgent head CT findings
NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde used AI to analyse 651 head CT scans during winter pressures
Problem
Emergency clinicians needed timely head CT reports while radiology services faced winter pressure. Urgent findings required prompt review.
Approach
Queen Elizabeth University Hospital deployed Qure.ai's qER during winter 2023/24 as part of the ACcEPT evaluation. The software analysed non-contrast head CT scans and prioritised suspected critical findings for radiologists to confirm.
Results
Takeaway
The initial figures described scans processed and injuries flagged. They did not establish diagnostic accuracy or a measured reduction in reporting time.
