Exemplary embodiments of the present invention perform workflow and communications logging functions in a hospital radiology department, free-standing imaging center, or other institution providing imaging services. The exemplary embodiments allow logging of communications and attempted communications both within the department and with personnel outside the department. The logs permanently memorialize the communications and can be viewed with the patient's other computerized records. The exemplary embodiments also assign and tracks the status of work as it progresses through a multi-step process. The exemplary embodiments generate and update lists of assigned tasks for the various individuals involved in providing radiology services to patients. For radiologists, the task lists are created by filtering the lists of cases available for interpretation. The lists are updated to reflect the current pending cases in real time. Users can query the system to determine the exact status of any case. Additionally, the system permits computer-based communications to accompany radiological studies throughout the process.
