1.INTRODUCTION Hospitals are complex systems proportional to their size, to the diversity of human resources, to the size of the population they serve, to their specialization and to their economic and geographic context. Within the complexity of hospital health care, the numerous multidisciplinary teams interact in the search for diagnosis and in the treatment of patients. The demand for care of an increasing number of patients in large public hospitals tends to reduce the time of consultation and physical examination and transfers the search for...

3.METHODS Case study developed with the radiologists of the Radiology Service and physicists of the Medical Physics Service of the HCPA. These professionals, along with the nursing and radiology technicians, work directly with the performance of imaging examinations through the evaluation of the clinical information provided, adequacy of the protocols of acquisition of images and control of the norms of safety in the use of the ionizing radiations. Radiologists interpret and release the results. In order to achieve the objective of this study, a Dynamic...

5.CONCLUSION The present study sought to identify the factors that influence the quality of the information between the requesting physician and the radiology sector when requesting imaging tests. Among the factors presented in the diagram, we emphasize the need to train the attending physician regarding the importance of transferring patient data through the clinical information field of the examination request, allowing the appropriate choice of the image acquisition protocol, reducing the releasing the report, reducing the need for complementary images or repetitions. The radiologist now...
