Radiology Backlog Calculator accuracy and testing
This page documents how Calwarden builds trust for this calculator: source notes, regression-style default tests, limitations, assumptions, unit handling, rounding, and visible change history.
Formula source
- Days to clear = pending studies / (daily finalization capacity - new studies per day).
Test cases
Default input regression check
Generated from the checked-in default inputs and calculate function.
Inputs
- Pending Studies: 900
- Daily Finalization Capacity: 420
- New Studies per Day: 360
- Weekend Coverage: 50%
Expected outputs
- Days to Clear Backlog: 15 days
- Net Daily Clearance: 60 studies/day
- Backlog Days at Capacity: 2.14 days
- Coverage Signal: Weekend coverage included
Known limitations
- This page documents the checked-in calculator logic and does not certify results for every real-world edge case.
- Use the result as a planning estimate unless the calculator page states a stricter purpose.
Assumptions
- The calculators use simple transparent formulas rather than vendor-specific analytics models.
- Inputs are processed locally in the browser and are not stored by Calwarden.
- This is operations planning math, not medical, legal, staffing, billing, or financial advice.
Unit handling
- Pending Studies accepts numeric values.
- Daily Finalization Capacity accepts numeric values.
- New Studies per Day accepts numeric values.
- Weekend Coverage accepts values in %.
- Days to Clear Backlog is displayed in days.
- Net Daily Clearance is displayed in studies/day.
- Backlog Days at Capacity is displayed in days.
Rounding rules
- Number displays use up to 2 decimal places in the calculator UI.
- Input precision follows configured step values where provided.
