What is the imaging workflow in Epic ASAP?

• A. Place imaging orders, track status, receive results in the results navigator, and interpret them within the chart.
• B. Imaging orders are sent to email and not tracked.
• C. Results are stored outside the chart.
• D. Orders are placed but results are never received.

Answer: (A)

Imaging workflow in Epic ASAP is an end-to-end, integrated process from order to bedside interpretation. You place an imaging order from the patient’s chart, the order is sent to Radiology, and you can watch its status as it moves through stages like ordered, scheduled, in progress, and completed. Once the study is finished, the radiology results and images are delivered directly into the patient’s chart and are accessible through the results navigator. From there, you review the radiology report and images and interpret them within the chart to guide patient care. This setup keeps everything centralized, trackable, and readily available for clinical decision-making. The other descriptions aren’t accurate because imaging results aren’t just emailed or stored outside the chart, and you do receive results rather than missing them.
