Abstract: A system is disclosed using a data-driven approach to objectively measure the diagnostic accuracy and value of diagnostic imaging reports using data captured routinely as part of the electronic health record. The system further utilizes the evaluation of the diagnostic accuracy of individual radiologists (imagers), subspecialty sections, modalities, and entire departments based on a comparison against a “precision diagnosis” rendered by other clinical data sources such as pathology, surgery, laboratory tests, etc.
