Techniques to improve accuracy of a medical report relating to a medical imaging study

摘要

Techniques for improving the accuracy of medical reports prepared by medical professionals. One technique may entail providing a system to automatically pre-populate a medical report by extracting data from a medical imaging study and pre-populating fields in the report with the extracted data. Another technique may entail providing a system to analyze data values from an imaging study during preparation of a medical report, and to generate alerts if at least one analyzed data value is outside of a normal range. The data extracted for pre-populating and/or the data values analyzed for alert generation may correspond to measurement data and/or calculation data from the imaging study. After pre-populating and/or generating alerts in the medical report, the system may present the report to a medical professional to include his/her impressions of the imaging study. Such techniques may enable medical professionals to more accurately and efficiently prepare medical reports for patients.
