Abstract:
:Radiology studies are inherently visual and the information contained within is best conveyed by visual methodology. Advanced reporting software allows the incorporation of annotated key images into text reports, but such features may be less effective compared with in-person consultations. The use of web technology and screen capture software to create retrievable on-demand audio/visual reports has not yet been investigated. This approach may preempt potential curbside consultations while providing referring clinicians with a more engaged imaging service. In this work, we develop and evaluate a video reporting tool that utilizes modern screen capture software and web technology. We hypothesize that referring clinicians would find that recorded on-demand video reports add value to clinical practice, education, and that such technology would be welcome in future practice. A total of 45 case videos were prepared by radiologists for 14 attending and 15 trainee physicians from emergency and internal medicine specialties. Positive survey feedback from referring clinicians about the video reporting system was statistically significant in all areas measured, including video quality, clinical helpfulness, and willingness to use such technology in the future. Trainees unanimously found educational value in video reporting. These results suggest the potential for video technology to re-establish the radiologist's role as a pivotal member of patient care and integral clinical educator. Future work is needed to streamline these methods in order to minimize work redundancy with traditional text reporting. Additionally, integration with an existing PACS and dictation system will be essential to ensuring ease of use and widespread adoption.
