The Yorkshire Imaging Collaborative (YIC) is a regional radiology network with 28 partner hospitals connected via a common technology platform. Radiologists and radiographers throughout the network also work in co-operation through clinical special interest groups to deliver common goals with a common practice based approach.
Harrogate District Foundation NHS Trust
Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust
Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust
Airedale NHS Foundation Trust
The Mid Yorkshire Hospitals NHS Trust
Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust
Northern Lincolnshire and Goole NHS Foundation Trust
York Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust
Calderdale and Huddersfield NHS Foundation Trust
Medical imaging records for patients transferred from any of the above hospital Trusts and the associated medical reports will be seemlessly available via Xero Viewer. This is a game changer for clinical care delivery, since this process usually requires a tedious manual process to transfer patient images between sites of care delivery.
The radiology service in Nightingale Harrogate is provided by the Harrogate District Foundation Trust radiologists. However, YIC have provisioned a technical solution to enable the rapid deployment of regionwide teleradiology in the event that additional assistance is required.
This will enable rapid access to a network of upto 240 Consultant Radiologists (including members of the YIC Chest Special Interest Group).
A further line of resilience is provided in the form of commercial teleradiology (Medica) which is currently provisioned to support night time radiology services for Nightingale.
