Abstract:
A teleradiology processing system comprises a central reading station having a plurality of computer work areas, a plurality of transcriptionist stations each having a transcriptionist computer, a shared audio communication channel that facilitates audio communication between the centralized teleradiology location and each of the transcriptionist stations and a database that stores a plurality of medical case files, where the database is accessible by each of the plurality of transcriptionist computers. In operation, each transcriptionist computer takes control of a uniquely assigned one of the plurality of computer work areas to provide information from a pre-fetched medical case. Moreover, each transcriptionist computer prepares a report based upon the medical case file and a tech sheet containing a measurement of at least one feature of a medical image. Each report, once approved by the specialist at the centralized teleradiology location, is written to the database.
