RSNA Radiology Reporting Initiative
The RSNA has established a Radiology Reporting Committee to identify and promote "best practices" in radiology reporting. The Committee, part of the Radiology Informatics Committee, includes radiologists and imaging informatics experts.
Background Reading
- Towards best practices in radiology reporting. Radiology 2009 [in press].
Progress
- June 2008: RSNA convened a workshop to plan the future of radiology reporting. More than 50 radiologists, medical informatics specialists, and representatives of cardiology, oncology, and pathology participated.
- November 2008: In conjunction with the RSNA Quality Improvement Committee, developed a standardized template for documenting communication of critical test results.
- March 2009: Recruited 12 Template Development Subcommittees to create templates for specific clinical areas in conjunction with subspecialty professional organizations.
- May 2009: RSNA held an industry forum for radiology reporting vendors, attended by 20 vendor representatives.
- December 2009: Planned availability of a small RSNA library of structured reporting templates, freely available for downloading and use.
Reporting Template Guidelines
We have developed report template guidelines for use by template authors.
