The patient registration and interpretation/reporting modules of a computer-assisted radiologic reporting system are described. Entries may be made at several levels of complexity, using bar codes or keyboard input. Several functions allow convenient access to the database. Output may be reformatted without programmer intervention via a maintenance file. The system allowed improved turnaround time, reduced costs, and better understanding of work patterns.
