Residency scheduling for radiology built to optimize

Thrawn delivers finished, ACGME-compliant radiology residency schedules using mathematical optimization so program directors and chief residents review schedules instead of building them.

Why Radiology Scheduling Is Hard

Rotation Conflicts Cascade Fast

Adjusting one subspecialty block ripples into call coverage and clinic assignments. Manually untangling the cascade consumes weeks every scheduling cycle.

ACGME Violations Found Too Late

Duty hour violations surface after the schedule is published, forcing emergency revisions that disrupt resident learning and attending coverage simultaneously.

Fairness Disputes Drain Leadership

Residents notice when nights, weekends, and coveted radiology electives are distributed unevenly. Defending manual scheduling decisions erodes trust and consumes protected time.

Finished Radiology Schedules Delivered to You

Thrawn's proprietary Scheduling Programming Language takes your program's rotation requirements, ACGME duty hour rules, resident preferences, and educational goals and produces complete, optimized block, call, and clinic schedules. Your chief residents become schedule reviewers, not schedule builders. No software to learn, no conflicts to manually resolve.

Built for Radiology Residency Programs

Five capabilities selected for the specific scheduling demands of diagnostic radiology programs across all PGY levels.

Automated Block Schedules Across All Subspecialties

Rotation Management

Automated Block Schedules Across All Subspecialties

Every radiology resident is assigned to the right subspecialty rotation at the right PGY level, with educational requirements and vacation preferences satisfied simultaneously. No manual juggling of GI, ER, neuroradiology, and body imaging blocks.

  • Subspecialty rotation coverage guaranteed
  • PGY-level requirements enforced automatically
  • Vacation preferences factored into optimization
ACGME Compliance Built Into Every Schedule

Compliance

ACGME Compliance Built Into Every Schedule

Radiology residency schedules are generated with duty hour rules satisfied from the start. Violations are prevented at generation time, not flagged after publication, keeping your program accreditation-ready at all times.

  • Violations prevented before schedule is published
  • Accreditation audit readiness built in
  • Duty hours tracked across all schedule types
Block Call and Clinic Optimized as One System

Cross-Schedule Optimization

Block Call and Clinic Optimized as One System

Block, call, and attending schedules for your radiology program are optimized simultaneously. A change in one rotation does not break the others, eliminating the domino effect that makes manual radiology scheduling so time-consuming.

  • Block and call treated as one system
  • No cascading failures across schedule types
  • Attending coverage aligned automatically
Mathematically Fair Assignment Distribution

Equity Engine

Mathematically Fair Assignment Distribution

Nights, weekends, holidays, and coveted radiology electives are distributed with mathematical precision. Residents can see that assignments are balanced, reducing complaints and freeing program leadership from defending scheduling decisions.

  • Equitable night and weekend distribution
  • Coveted elective spots allocated fairly
  • Bias-free assignment across all PGY levels
Educational Requirements Met for Every Resident

Curriculum Compliance

Educational Requirements Met for Every Resident

Minimum rotation weeks per subspecialty, required clinical experiences, and graduation milestones are built directly into the optimization as hard constraints, ensuring every radiology resident completes what they need to complete.

  • Graduation requirements tracked per resident
  • Minimum subspecialty weeks enforced
  • PGY-appropriate assignments structured automatically
