A Research for Patient's Treatment Lean Value Stream of Radiology Department
Li Yue-yu
Abstract：Based on Lean Value Stream theories and simulation modeling methods , the service processes and process time of patient treatment in the radiology department of West China General Hospital are ana -lyzed .By identifying the main bottleneck process , the constraints of the main bottleneck resource are fur-ther analyzed , a management problem of the physician team uniformly distributing patients′diagnostic case information to write diagnostic reports is found out , and finally improvement programs and strategies of the main bottleneck process in the radiology department are proposed .The resource's rough-capacity matching mechanism of lean management is an effective way to improve patients'treatment process of the radiology department .
