Wiki Review or Independent Interpretation?

[jenarnold]

Hello Everyone,
What is the difference between the review of test (category 1) and the independent interpretation of a test (category 2)?

Thanks in advance for your time!

A review of a test is the provider reading someone else's interpretation/report.
An independent interpretation of a test is the provider reviewing the actual images and coming up with his/her own reading/interpretation. They will need to clearly document the findings in the note and acknowledge that they performed the read.
