      ab: Paging referring clinicians with imaging results is a frequently repeated 'microtask' performed by practicing radiologists. Many institutions use online alpha-paging systems to provide this integral part of safe and efficient patient care. Although sending an alpha-page can often be accomplished within one minute, current tools may disrupt workflow by distracting users with a series of tedious mouse clicks. We describe the development, evaluation, and updates of a portable tool that sends alpha-pages to referring clinicians using two keystrokes. This software integrates study information obtained from the Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) with an existing hospital paging system.
