Do you guys get call backs for all PEs and/or expect them from your radiologists? I'm including sub segmental/tertiary PEs.
I've been having a real issue with our radiologists over the past few months. I've had them miss all types of findings and they are reading from home giving us prelim reads overnight. I even had them read a CT as neg and when I reviewed... had a massive blowout L2 fx with retropulsion and when I called him, he really didn't have much to say. Needless to say, I've been dogging them over the past few months with study after study where something was missed or they didn't call back for acute findings. They've missed spinal Ca mets (On my overnight STAT MRI no less), PEs, Fxs, Masses, etc..
I'm trying to decided if my recent sub segmental PE is worth getting on my bandwagon again. From my point of view, I'd like a call back on any acute PE. Period. I don't care where it is. How do you guys feel? Am I being unreasonable?
