1. A method of searching for International Classification of Diseases (ICD) codes using a stand-alone web-based rapid anatomical documentation (RAD) system, the ICD codes being linked to key words that are applied to a standards-based structured vocabulary, the method comprising:
accessing the RAD system via a network connection after authentication is performed; providing a user interface (UI) for launching an RAD tool within an RAD system environment; launching a search request related to a search of an ICD code by making a selection within the UI; displaying a search screen divided into a plurality of display regions, the search regions including a location section, a diagnoses section and an ICD code section; initiating a search type from the search screen, the search type including a text search and anatomy search, the location section having a different configuration depending on the type of search selected; entering a search request based on the type of search selected; displaying available search filters in the location section and the diagnoses section and available ICD codes in the code section based on the entered search request; selecting at least one search filter from the location section or the diagnosis section, which causes an update of the search filters and ICD codes available in the code section, the selection of the search filters being repeatable until a number of codes available in the codes section reaches a minimum value; selecting at least one ICD code from the code section, each ICD code being linked to keywords hierarchically organized and associated with the search filters, links to defined regions on anatomical art images and clinically relevant information; saving the selected ICD code and the clinically relevant information. |
