    摘要: A radiology viewer includes an electronic processor (10, 22), a display (12), input device(s) (14, 16), and a non-transitory storage medium storing executable instructions. Retrieval instructions (42) are executable to retrieve an index of prior radiology examinations (24, 26) from an electronic patient chart (20) in which the prior radiology examinations are indexed by at least date, imaging modality, and anatomical region and to retrieve billable order codes for the prior radiology examinations from an order management system (30). Organizing instructions (44) are executable to organize the prior radiology examinations into groups using features of the prior radiology examinations including features comprising or generated from the billable order codes for the prior radiology examinations. Viewer instructions (50) are executable to display an organized index of the prior radiology examinations on the at least one display in which the prior radiology examinations are organized into the groups.
