Abstract

Currently three client systems are provided by Medico: the stationary clinical radiological workplace which consists of a semantic annotation prototype to be used as a semantic reporting tool for the radiologists in-daily routine; the semantic search prototype; and a mobile system. The semantic annotation tool is designed to enable the physician to validate and complete the automatically generated semantic annotations, whereas the semantic search prototype is to be used to ensure a diagnosis by searching for similar cases in medical databases. The mobile application (Usage of mobile applications for medical purposes might be restricted in several countries.) runs on the iPad and connects to the Semantic Server of Medico, which enables the radiologist to quickly view and manipulate the semantic annotations anywhere, e.g., at the bedside, using touch screen gestures and speech.
