The system transforms spoken words into written text, specifically tailored for the field of diagnostic imaging. It allows radiologists to dictate findings, impressions, and other relevant information directly into reports. A practical application involves a physician verbally describing the characteristics of a lesion observed on a CT scan, which is then automatically transcribed into the patient’s medical record.
This technology offers numerous advantages, including improved report turnaround times, reduced transcription costs, and enhanced accuracy due to direct dictation by the interpreting physician. Historically, the adoption of this tool has streamlined workflows, freeing up resources and allowing for a more efficient reporting process. It also reduces potential errors associated with manual transcription.
