“This means families will know their child’s imaging is read by pediatric experts at all Children’s Hospital New Orleans locations at any time of day, instead of having to rely on adult radiologists or waiting until the next day for a study to be read by a pediatric expert, as is the case at other pediatric facilities in our community,” Jonathan Brouk, COO and chief strategy officer at the children’s hospital, stated in an Aug. 24 news release from the medical centers.
Through Cleveland Clinic’s eRadiology service, the Ohio-based radiologists will help develop exam protocols, interpret images and consult with physicians. It will support the Louisiana hospital’s pediatric trauma program, the only one in the region.
The two medical centers also plan to expand the partnership to Cleveland Clinic specialists who can read cardiac MRI images.
