Closed-loop Radiology Workflow
Radiology Workflow

By providing robust software solutions for both radiologists and clinicians, Dictaphone is closing the loop on accurate and timely speech-driven documentation and communication between medical professionals.

The workflow is simple.

  1. Get the right order the first time around.
    With ACR appropriateness criteria as its foundation and 10 years of clinical input from a panel of medical experts, RadPort for Radiology is the most clinically advanced and accurate way to deliver decision support information for appropriate high-cost image ordering guidance.
  2. Report on the study quickly and efficiently with speech recognition.
    Dictphone offers two front-end speech recognition solutions designed for easy incorporation into existing radiology workflow in teaching hospitals, community medical centers, and freestanding imaging centers. Our reporting applications offer maximum efficiency including seamless integration with nearly 50 RIS/PACS products.

    Using Dictaphones radiology-centric speech reporting solutions, interpreting physicians can turn around reports within seconds. Since radiologists can sign off on a completed report while viewing the original image, the need to double-check reports returning from transcription is eliminated. As a result, speech recognition not only boosts radiologist efficiency, it also improves referring physician satisfaction, enhanced patient care, and yields significant cost savings.

    Depending on the unique needs of your department, we have you covered. PowerScribe for Radiology and RadWhere for Radiology provide the tools to improve your radiologists’ day.

  3. Communicate critical patient results with audited transactions.
    A growing number of hospitals and health systems now see Critical Test Result Management (CTRM) as a strategic pathway to greater patient safety, better patient outcomes and higher staff productivity.

    Veriphy provides the methodology and supporting technology to develop, implement and continuously improve the communication of patient findings within a hospital and across multiple hospitals and departments. Veriphy is a tested and proven industry-leading CTRM solution recognized by the Joint Commission and now in use at more than 130 hospitals nationwide.

    For a more streamlined workflow, explore how Vocada Veriphy is available as an integrated component of PowerScribe for Radiology and RadWhere for Radiology.

  4. Mine years of clinical data and perform utilization management to improve your practice.
    RadCube for Radiology is a powerful tool for analyzing and sharing information that leads to more informed decisions. RadCube’s instantaneous, multifaceted approach to data analysis is a result of the merging of two very dynamic technologies, OLAP and web architecture.

    The ability to monitor data is the missing link in most modern radiology practices. RadCube for Radiology allows departments to run their business in a data-driven fashion - from modality utilization to physician ordering patterns, through radiologist reporting statistics and outcomes analysis. RadCube for Radiology is ushering in a new era of diagnostic imaging management.
