Abstract:
The exemplary embodiments are related to systems and methods for automatically selecting one or more suitable medical imaging protocols based on a patient's clinical information. Exemplary embodiments relate to methods and systems for collecting clinical information for a current patient, generating an encoded description of a plurality of imaging protocols in a computer-processable format including medical concepts, converting the collected clinical information into the computer-processable format, and recommending or providing at least one suitable imaging protocol based on the encoded description and the converted clinical information for the current patient.
Abstract:
A system includes a modeler (214) that generates a model which models a quality of findings in radiologist reports as function of deposited dose of scans from which the radiologist reports are created and a dose optimizer (216) that determines an optimal dose value for a planned scan based on the model and one or more optimization rules (218). A method includes generating a model which models a quality of fmdings in radiologist reports as a function of deposited dose of scans from which the radiologist reports are created and determining an optimal dose value for a planned scan based on the model and one or more optimization rules.
