Background
- Towards best practices in radiology reporting, a committee position paper
- A randomized trial to evaluate an early structured reporting system and an accompanying editorial
- A review of the history of BI-RADS(TM) structured reporting and an accompanying editorial
- A brief article in the Quantitative Imaging Biomarkers Alliance (QIBA) Quarterly newsletter
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. Consensus was reached on a global template for diagnostic radiology reports, including standardized radiology report headings.
- November 2008: In conjunction with the RSNA Quality Improvement Committee, developed a standardized template for documenting communication of critical test results.
- March 2009: Formed 13 subcommittees to create templates for specific clinical areas in collaboration with subspecialty professional organizations.
- May 2009: Conducted an industry forum for radiology reporting vendors, attended by 20 vendor representatives. Slide presentations from that meeting are available.
- December 2009: Released the first set of reporting templates, freely available for downloading and use.
- October 2010: A proposal to develop a template exchange profile was approved by the Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise (IHE). This profile will enable radiologists to download templates from a template library directly into their favorite reporting system. It also will facilitate the vendor independent migration of templates between reporting systems.
- November 2010: RSNA announces the availability of over 100 best-practices radiology report templates, in a beta version of a new searchable report template database.
Technical Resources for Reporting Template Developers
- Standard Radiology Report Headings -- These headings outline the major sections of a generic radiology report.
- RSNA RadLex radiology vocabulary. Terms in reporting templates will be mapped to RadLex and other controlled vocabularies.
- Synoptic Reporting code site. The College of American Pathologists offers their "Electronic Cancer Checklists" (eCC) using the RELAX-NG language for XML documents.
- Reporting template metadata. These data are used to index entries in the library of reporting templates.
