ScanSafe

MRI and contrast safety screening that blocks, not warns — and why each X-ray was retaken.

What it is

MRI screening against the implant registry and a structured questionnaire; contrast pathways check eGFR recency and allergy history with premedication protocols; an unresolved risk stops the table, not the technologist’s conscience. The Retakes tab logs every retaken X-ray with its reason (positioning, exposure, artefact, equipment, patient motion), the room and the examination, with no patient on it, and each technologist enters the images they took that day; the repeat-reject rate shows by room and by technologist over a period, so a room creeping up is seen before the dose audit finds it. A target rate is the practice’s own, with its source; none ships.

How it works

Screen the patient, answer every questionFind them and pick the modality. Pacemaker, implantable defibrillator, aneurysm clip, cochlear implant, metal fragments in the eye, pregnancy, any other implant — with the make and model where there is one.
Clear it, or it stopsAn unresolved answer blocks the scan. It is a block, not a warning the technologist has to be brave about.
Override in writingA radiologist’s written justification, which goes onto the override register permanently. Then the scan can be cleared.
Sign the screeningAfter signing it is a document and cannot be edited.
Log every retaken X-rayOn Retakes, log each retake with its reason, room and examination — no patient — and the images you took that day. The repeat-reject rate shows by room and by technologist over any period; a single retake is never shown against a name, and a target is your own, with its source.

Rules it keeps

What it does not do, by design. A listing with only benefits is an advertisement.

It does not accept “patient says no implants” over a registry that says otherwise — conflicts must be resolved.

It never shows a single retake against a technologist’s name: it shows the rate the dose-reduction programme acts on.

Questions clinics ask

What does ScanSafe do?

MRI and contrast safety screening that blocks, not warns — and why each X-ray was retaken. MRI screening against the implant registry and a structured questionnaire; contrast pathways check eGFR recency and allergy history with premedication protocols; an unresolved risk stops the table, not the technologist’s conscience. The Retakes tab logs every retaken X-ray with its reason (positioning, exposure, artefact, equipment, patient motion), the room and the examination, with no patient on it, and each technologist enters the images they took that day; the repeat-reject rate shows by room and by technologist over a period, so a room creeping up is seen before the dose audit finds it. A target rate is the practice’s own, with its source; none ships.

What data does ScanSafe read and write?

ScanSafe reads implant records, lab results, allergies, X-ray rooms and image counts and writes screenings, blocks, premedication orders, retakes and their reasons, repeat-reject rates. Its data class is Full PHI. Every app works on the same patient record — nothing is copied into a silo.

What does ScanSafe deliberately not do?

It does not accept “patient says no implants” over a registry that says otherwise — conflicts must be resolved. It never shows a single retake against a technologist’s name: it shows the rate the dose-reduction programme acts on.

What happens to our data if we uninstall ScanSafe?

All clinical data stays in the record.
