    Abstract: A computer processor may receive medical data including a report and an image. The computer processor may analyze the report using natural language processing to identify a condition and a corresponding criterion. The computer processor may also analyze the image using an image processing model to generate an image analysis. The computer processor may determine whether the report has a potential problem by comparing the image analysis to the criterion.

  • Patent number: 9530068
    Abstract: An approach is provided to generate forms with template inclusions. In the approach, optical character recognition (OCR) text is compared to corresponding text in a selected form. Characters of text in the OCR text are then replaced with text from the template text, the replacing results in a form with template inclusions. The form with template inclusions is then processed by a forms processing operation.
