Speech Recognition System and Clinical Reporting Workflow Upgrade Announced

By MedImaging International staff writers
Posted on 14 Dec 2014

The new release of a speech recognition and clinical reporting solution includes enhanced mobility, an improved management console, and additional user personalization options.

The upgrade also features new dictation management routines, templates, and macros, with emphasis on building public embedded routines through mapping. In addition, this release includes enhanced roaming profiles, integration with additional PACS, personalized voice commands, and a log that documents communications with providers.

The Voice2Dox upgrade is focused on improved productivity and usability. One of the usability improvements allows radiologists to customize the color theme of the user interface color theme to enable diagnostic reading of images in low-light environments.

Voice2Dox was developed by IDS (Fort Lauderdale, FL, USA). Voice2Dox includes templates, transcription services, and supports workflows for a variety of specialized groups such as radiology and teleradiology, orthopedics, and surgery.

Yaniv Dagan, CEO of IDS, said, “These click-saving features when accrued over the period of just one day, save our physicians a significant amount of time, allowing them to complete reports in less time. In light of the lost productivity brought with EHR system implementations and lower reimbursement rates, we continue to focus on productivity boosting features.”
