Abstract: A method, a computer system, and a computer program product for creating medical findings reports are introduced. Using these, hierarchically organized and dynamically adaptable data structure and a text editing interface are provided. A report text consisting of user-entered free text and/or structured text, that is stored in the data structure elements and transferred into the report text, is created. In the report text, first report text elements, that can be assigned to at least one data structure element, and second report text elements, that cannot be assigned to any of the existing data structure elements, are identified. The first report text elements are then assigned to the at least one data structure element. The second report text elements are then assigned and stored to one or more newly created data structure elements and/or to existing data structure elements while maintaining the order of the report text.

Abstract: The invention relates to a system, a corresponding method and a corresponding computer program product for reporting on medical images. The system comprises: means (1) for receiving one or more medical images (3), means (5) for receiving and/or creating a machine-readable structured report (7), an image display (9) configured to display the received one or more medical images (3), a report display (13) configured to display the received and/or created machine-readable structured report (7), means (17) for providing a floating user-interface (UI) window (19), and means (23) for updating and/or filling structured-report elements (25) of the received and/or created machine-readable structured report (7). The system is configured to identify and follow the focus of a user of the system and, based on the identified focus, to assign a section of the image display (9) as an active image-display section (27).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for generating a report (50) comprising receiving a user input to thereby generate at least one final finding (24); automatically generating the report (50) based on the at least one final finding (24); and utilizing the at least one final finding (24) to train at least one algorithm (12), wherein the at least one algorithm (12) is configured to generate at least one machine finding (22). The present invention also relates to a corresponding system and use.

Abstract: The present invention provides an apparatus for electronically producing a at least a part of a medical report. The apparatus implements a question tree (Q) comprising a plurality of mostly interrelated question nodes, and a report node tree (RN) comprising a plurality of report nodes, wherein at least one of the report nodes comprises and/or represents a text template. The apparatus further comprising an engine adapted to receive inputs, store the input relating to a selected question node, identify at least one affected report node associated with the selected question node, and change a property, in particular a visibility property, of at least one of the at least one affected report nodes, and preferably, insert and/or store the received input in either the at least one affected report node and/or the selected question node. The present invention also provides a method for electronically producing a medical report, and a computer readable device for implementing the method.
