Executive Summary

Iris Scans Diagnostic Centre in Perinthalmanna, Kerala handles complex multi-modality cases across X-ray, CT, and MRI for demanding referring physicians. Before 5C Network, the center lacked structured QC infrastructure and access to sub-specialized radiologists. After partnering with 5C Network, multi-layer quality assurance, specialized radiologist matching, and streamlined workflows established the high reporting standards their physicians expect.

The Challenge

1Complex Case Requirements

  • Complex cases across X-ray, CT, and MRI required sub-specialized radiology expertise
  • Referring physicians had high expectations for report detail, particularly in oncology and neurology
  • Locally available radiologists could not cover all required subspecialties

2No Structured QC Infrastructure

  • No structured quality assurance process — quality depended on individual radiologist availability
  • Manual handoffs in the reporting workflow created inconsistencies
  • No systematic way to track or improve reporting quality over time

3Growing Caseload Demands

  • Increasing patient volumes required scalable quality processes
  • The center needed a systematic approach rather than ad hoc individual case management
  • Dr. Patel Shreya Dilipbhai wanted consistent, measurable quality standards

⚠️ Before 5C Network

  • Reporting quality varied based on which radiologist was available
  • No multi-layer review process for complex or critical cases
  • Limited access to sub-specialty expertise for demanding referrals
