At the heart of Everlight's success is our unique "follow the sun" model. Imagine a scenario where your urgent reports are always read by a fully-accredited, daylight-hour radiologist – no matter the time of day or night in your local timezone. That's precisely what our global network of Consultant Radiologists delivers. By leveraging different time zones, we ensure that an awake and alert radiologist is always available to interpret your studies, drastically reducing the impact of fatigue and improving the accuracy of every report.
The Power of Daylight-Hour Expertise, Around the Clock
The benefits of this model are profound:
- Reduced Burnout: Our radiologists work during their natural waking hours, which is crucial for maintaining focus, accuracy, and overall well-being. This significantly reduces the risk of burnout often associated with demanding overnight shifts, ensuring a high-quality reporting service.
- Improved Accuracy: An alert radiologist is an accurate radiologist. By eliminating the challenges of working against the body's natural circadian rhythm, our "follow the sun" model leads to more precise interpretations and a higher standard of diagnostic certainty.
- Seamless Patient Care: Day or night, weekends or holidays, our service ensures that urgent reports are processed quickly and efficiently, allowing clinicians to make timely decisions and provide seamless patient care. This continuity is vital for managing acute conditions and improving patient outcomes.
Fast-Track Workflows When You Need Them Most
Everlight specializes in urgent teleradiology reporting, with fast-track workflows designed to meet critical deadlines. We understand that certain conditions, like stroke or polytrauma, require immediate attention. Our commitment to rapid turnaround times is evident in our impressive statistics:
- Urgent Polytrauma CT (provisional): 20 minutes
- Urgent Stroke/Thrombolysis (FAST protocol): 30 minutes
- Urgent CT, MRI, XR (full report): 60 minutes
- Average urgent query thrombectomy full report turnaround time (2024): 15 minutes 58 seconds
- Average urgent full report turnaround time (2024): 28 minutes 43 seconds
These figures not only meet but often far exceed national guidelines, providing clinicians with the critical information they need, precisely when they need it.
Global Delivery, Local Impact
Our global network of GMC/IMC specialist registered Consultant Radiologists ensures that you have immediate access to world-class expertise, even after your in-house team has gone home. This global delivery model has a tangible local impact:
- Consistency and Quality: Regardless of seasonal variations in demand or radiologist capacity, Everlight maintains consistent, high-quality reporting standards.
- Compliance with Guidelines: We help healthcare providers adhere to and even surpass imaging reporting turnaround time (TAT) guidelines, such as those set by NHS England. Our commitment ensures that no verified report takes longer than the recommended timeframes, with a strong focus on urgent categories.
Beyond the Numbers: The Human Element
While statistics highlight our efficiency, the true value of Everlight's service lies in the human element – the peace of mind that comes from knowing every urgent report is in expert hands. It's about empowering clinicians with the diagnostic certainty they need to save lives, improve health outcomes, and provide the best possible care to their patients, around the clock.
In a world that never sleeps, Everlight Radiology offers a brighter, more reliable future for urgent diagnostic reporting.
