Common themes were identified, with the four considered most pertinent documented in this commentary. Similar operational considerations and challenges were identified amongst all sites. This commentary intends to serve as a starting point for medical imaging departments in considering the planning and implementation of services in a pandemic scenario. This commentary considers multiple considerations and challenges for Medical Imaging Departments in responding to the COVID‐19 pandemic. It themes these considerations as infection control, resources, communication and change management. |
