Abstract

The task of compiling residents’ schedules is time-consuming and is often complicated by unforeseen events and changes in personnel. Many academic radiology departments delegate this responsibility to the chief resident. This report describes two modules of a radiology information system that assist in managing residency schedules, particularly residents’ on-call and vacation schedules. The programs were written in the ANSI-standard MUMPS programming language and run on a PDP i 1/44 (Digital Equipment Corporation, Boston, MA) with the M/i 1 + operating system (lntersystems, Boston, MA). They operate as modules of the MARS radiology information system [1], which is available to all department personnel on approximately 100 terminals located at workstations in our clinical facility and department offices.
