Triage Radiology Imaging Assessment for Greater Effectiveness (TRIAGE)
Triage Radiology Imaging Assessment for Greater Effectiveness (TRIAGE): a Cluster-Randomised Crossover Trial Evaluating the Reporting Turn-Around-Time of Brain Magnetic Resonance Images Using an AI-enabled Abnormality Detector for Prioritisation
Studieoversigt
Detaljeret beskrivelse
NHS radiology services are under unprecedented pressure as rising demand outpaces available workforce capacity. MRI utilisation across the NHS has increased by 9% year-on-year. As a result, many departments have relied on unsustainable measures such as outsourcing and weekend insourcing to manage reporting backlogs.
Delays in scan reporting have serious implications, including missed or delayed diagnoses, prolonged hospital stays, higher healthcare costs, and poorer patient outcomes. A systematic review and meta-analysis found that each month of delay in initiating cancer treatment increases mortality risk by approximately 10%.
There is an urgent need for validated digital tools that can reduce TATs without compromising diagnostic accuracy. The TRIAGE study (Triage Radiology Imaging Assessment for Greater Effectiveness (TRIAGE): a Cluster-Randomised Crossover Trial Evaluating the Reporting Turn-Around-Time of Brain Magnetic Resonance Images using an AI-enabled Abnormality Detector for Prioritisation) evaluates whether MIDI can reduce the average TAT of abnormal scans in routine NHS clinical practice.
The primary purpose of MIDI is workflow triage: it enables prioritisation of abnormal scans within radiology reporting worklists, helping departments manage high volumes efficiently.

Deltagergruppe / Arm |
Intervention / Behandling |
|---|---|
|
Eksperimentel: Intervention - MIDI ON
Scans are triaged by the MIDI AI tool.
The system automatically classifies each MRI scan as either "normal" or "abnormal" shortly after image acquisition.
|
MIDI is an AI-based TRIAGE tool and its primary purpose is workflow triage of brain MRI scans.
|
|
Ingen indgriben: Control - MIDI OFF
MRI scans are reported according to standard care in chronological order, with no AI prioritisation.
