5 years ago an audit of UK labs showed that more than half offered a
24/7 service (Ann Clin Biochem 2007, 44, 443-448).
It does depend on local circumstances. Hospitals that would have to
transfer patients to neurosurgery units often offer a 24/7 service.
Those with these units in their vicinity may not.
At York we do offer a 24/7 service and have the facility for the on-call
consultant to look at the scan remotely on a PC. Hope this helps.
Kind regards

Subject: Xanthochromia Screening
May I enquire of subscribers if they process xanthochromia screens at
night?
Are there guidelines on this question?

David
