Radiology Reports is the reporting surface: Manage radiology studies, reports, and imaging analytics. It is where a radiologist opens a study with its images beside it, writes the report, and releases it.

​
What you’re looking at

A period select — Today, This Week, This Month or All Time — and New Study for raising a request. Five tiles run across the top: Total Studies · Pending (Awaiting scheduling) · In Progress (Being performed) · Reported (Reports finalized) · Critical Findings (Require attention) Four tabs follow: Overview, Reports, Analytics and Documents. The Reports tab is the working list, with Search studies…, a Date filter and a Status filter offering All Statuses, Pending, Scheduled, In Progress, Completed, Reported and Cancelled. Badges rank by importance: Critical, then STAT, then Urgent, then the plain status. The imaging badge shows {n} imgs where images have arrived, Acquiring… while the machine is still sending, and Discontinued where acquisition was abandoned. Nothing matching reads No Studies Found.

​
Report a study

1

Open the study

From the row menu, Create Report on a completed study or Edit Report on one already written. The heading reads Create Study Report, Edit Study Report or View Study Report.
2

Check the study information

The Study Information card names the modality and the order date, then Patient, Patient ID, Study Type, Ordered By and Indication. An indication of Not specified is worth chasing before you read — a request with no clinical question comes back as a description rather than an answer.
3

Look at the images

Where the imaging bridge is connected, the card shows the Accession and {n} images attached. View images opens the key preview images; Open full viewer launches the full diagnostic viewer against your own archive. Prior studies lists comparisons found for that patient.
4

Write findings and impression

Findings is what you can see — “Detailed description of what is observed in the study”. Impression is the answer to the clinical question — “Clinical interpretation and diagnostic conclusion”. Referring clinicians read the impression first and often only that. Recommendations carries the follow-up.
5

Confirm the technical details

Where a study came from a connected machine, ClinikEHR pre-fills some of them and says so: Some values may be pre-filled from the modality (MPPS) — verify before saving. Verify rather than assume; the dose on the record is the dose the patient carries.
6

Save or submit

Save Draft keeps it editable and confirms with Draft saved successfully. Submit Report releases it — Report submitted successfully. The Report Status panel tracks you as you go: Findings and Impression each read Pending until they are Entered.
Ticking This study contains critical findings marks the record — it does not tell anyone. Critical findings require immediate communication to the ordering physician, and that is still a phone call you make yourself. ClinikEHR reminds you after saving; it cannot make the call.

​
Images, the archive and the report PDF

Image pixels never leave your building. ClinikEHR stores the addresses of your own on-site archive and the viewer reads from it — as the preview dialog puts it, “Full diagnostic images stay in the clinic PACS.” Where previews have not arrived, it says Preview images haven’t synced from the modality yet — they appear here once the bridge uploads them. Archive to cloud requests long-term storage — Archive requested — the study will upload to the cloud shortly. Once archived, Download study takes a copy; a failed archive offers Retry archive. Do this after reporting, not before. Download Report (PDF) shows Preparing… while the file is built and confirms with Radiology report downloaded. An order not yet saved refuses politely: Save the order before downloading its report.

​
Working offline

Raising an imaging order keeps working. One captured offline is confirmed as Imaging order saved offline with a provisional reference, and syncs when the connection returns; payment stays pending until then. A connection that drops mid-save gives Connection dropped — imaging order queued. Reporting itself needs a connection, because it reads images from your archive. See Working offline.

​
Who can do this

Role decides whether this page opens — owners, radiologists, radiology technicians, doctors, managers and nurses pass. Anyone else is told You don’t have permission to access the Radiology Station. Please contact your clinic administrator. An owner can also hide Radiology from a role under Role navigation. Per-person enforcement is opt-in: someone never saved in the permissions sheet is unrestricted, and the sheet warns “Saving starts enforcing”. A denied action is recorded in the audit log; an allowed one is not. See Staff permissions.

​
Check it worked

  • The row shows Reported, and the Reported tile moves.
  • Report Status shows Findings and Impression as Entered.
  • Download Report (PDF) produces the document without a draft stamp.
  • The requesting clinician sees it on the patient’s record.

Common issues

Submitting a report needs a second-factor-verified session. You are taken to the verification step automatically — complete it and submit again. See Two-factor authentication.
The viewer opens in a new tab. If nothing appears, your browser blocked the pop-up — allow pop-ups for ClinikEHR. If the button is absent altogether, no viewer address has been configured; see Modalities.
The machine has not delivered them yet, or the study was performed on equipment that is not connected. Check the Studies awaiting review queue on Modalities before reporting from memory.
Reporting is limited to radiologists and doctors. Ask an owner to correct your role under Staff.
A failed archive turns into Retry archive. If it fails repeatedly the study is likely still acquiring — check its badge before retrying.

​
FAQ

No. Only preview images and the addresses of your own archive are held; full diagnostic pixels stay in your PACS and the viewer reads them from there.
Earlier imaging for the same patient, found on your connected archive, offered for comparison. They appear only where the imaging bridge is set up.
Measurements the machine itself recorded, imported alongside the images so you do not retype them. They appear under Measurements when the modality sent them.
Yes, where a balance is outstanding — Submit Report & Pay settles it as you release the report. Otherwise it stays Pending and is handled in Billing.
Yes — the Diagnostics edition issues the same reports. See Imaging reports.
