Abstract: An automated system manages completion of a medical imaging study having one or more different reports associated with one or more different personnel. A user interface provides multiple display images. A configuration processor enables a user, using a display image, to assign a predetermined completion status to a report. The predetermined completion status is used to indicate a report is complete as required for an associated imaging study to be designated complete. A monitoring processor monitors stored indicators indicating current status of corresponding reports associated with the imaging study. A decision processor, in response to the monitoring of the stored indicators, automatically determines whether a current status of a report matches a corresponding predetermined completion status of a report for individual reports associated with the imaging study and in response to a match for the individual reports, initiates generation of a message indicating the imaging study is complete.

Abstract: A system enables a user to signify completion of an imaging study comprising a collection of reports, worksheets and diagnostic data, based upon rules configured by a user saving user time and increasing reliability of image study processing. An automated system manages completion of a medical imaging study having one or more different reports associated with one or more different personnel and being produced during a patient imaging examination. A user interface provides multiple display images. A configuration processor enables a user, using a display image, to assign a predetermined completion status to a report. The predetermined completion status is used to indicate a report is complete as required for an associated imaging study to be designated complete. A monitoring processor monitors stored indicators indicating current status of corresponding reports associated with the imaging study.
