  • Publication number: 20110087624
    Abstract: A system and method are provided to generate knowledge-based radiological report information via an ontology driven graphical user interface. Even further, a system and method are provided that employ radiological report domain ontology to specify and model a graphical user interface knowledge that is used by the present invention to create a graphical user interface and then to exercise the graphical user interface to generate knowledge-based radiological report information.

  • Publication number: 20110035352
    Abstract: The present invention is directed in general to a system and method that employs radiological domain ontology to specify and model radiological information as knowledge. A system and method are provided that allow for consulting the ontology in the context of the model that the ontology fulfills. The result of consulting the ontology is validated, identified and classified radiological information that is based on information provided in the consultation.

  • Publication number: 20110033093
    Abstract: The present invention is directed in general to imaging technologies, and more specifically to a diagrammatic reporting methodology. A system and method are provided for graphically presenting the content of radiological image study reports. Even further, a system and method are provided for presenting the content of structured radiological reports including multiple imaging studies and their corresponding findings in a symbolic color-coded graphical diagram. Further still, the present invention may utilize an ontology of radiological knowledge to interpret report content to generate the information to be diagrammatically displayed in a symbolic color-coded graphical diagram.
