The patient had not experienced fever, chills, or dysuria. Past medical history was notable for two completed pregnancies; otherwise, there was no pertinent medical history or family history. At physical examination, the patient was uncomfortable but not in acute distress. There was tenderness to palpation in the right upper quadrant and epigastric region, but no rebound tenderness or guarding. Vital signs were blood pressure of 141/85 mm Hg, pulse rate of 91/min, and temperature of 37.2 °C. The serum β-human chorionic gonadotropin test result was negative for pregnancy, and urinalysis showed no leukocyte esterase or nitrites. Routine blood investigations, including white blood cell count, were within normal limits. Initial evaluation with contrast-enhanced CT of the abdomen and pelvis was performed (Fig 1), followed by MRI of the abdomen without and with intravenous contrast material (Fig 2).</p>","PeriodicalId":20896,"journal":{"name":"Radiology","volume":"314 2","pages":"e242727"},"PeriodicalIF":12.1,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143493349","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The COVID-19 pandemic has increased the urgency of health systems and regulatory agencies to address longstanding health disparities. Imaging disparities have been documented in the imaging literature for decades, but there is paucity of published interventions to successfully reduce disparities in imaging. Quality and safety approaches can be successfully employed to catalyze and rigorously evaluate interventions to reduce imaging disparities. Emerging from the Toyota Production System, the lean management framework focuses on continuous quality improvement to improve efficiency and reduce waste. Lean approaches have been successfully adopted by quality and safety experts in health care for problem-solving and process improvement. This article provides readers with step-by-step guidance on how to address health equity issues by adapting selected lean tools for quality improvement and patient safety. Core steps include <i>(a)</i> problem identification, <i>(b)</i> team building, <i>(c)</i> creation of a data infrastructure, <i>(d)</i> problem analysis, <i>(e)</i> development and testing of solutions, and <i>(f)</i> change management strategies to help organizations sustain successful health equity initiatives. Readers can use these six core steps to catalyze data-driven quality improvement initiatives to reduce imaging disparities within their health systems.</p>","PeriodicalId":20896,"journal":{"name":"Radiology","volume":"314 2","pages":"e232750"},"PeriodicalIF":12.1,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11868847/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143441873","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
