Altamont Software Launches Next Generation DICOM SR Integration

In an exciting development for the medical imaging community, Altamont Software has unveiled its innovative Dynamic Content engine designed for DICOM SR integration within its Passport SR platform. This advanced feature aims to alleviate the burden on radiologists by streamlining their reporting processes and enhancing their productivity. By automatically generating textual content and calculating numerical values from data retrieved from imaging modalities, this new tool represents a significant step forward in radiological reporting.

The introduction of the Dynamic Content engine allows radiologists to save invaluable time by reducing the necessity to manually dictate complex values. Previously, radiologists were required to engage in numerous dictation steps to convey essential data in their reports. With the new capabilities of Passport SR, such repetitive tasks will now be significantly minimized.

Key Features and Benefits

One of the main objectives of the Dynamic Content engine is to eliminate the prolonged manual analysis that consumes radiologists’ time. By incorporating automated features into the workflow, the software optimizes efficiency, making the lives of medical professionals easier. Importantly, this advancement provides the following benefits:

1. Time-Saving: Radiologists can focus on critical analyses rather than being bogged down by administration.
2. Automation of Manual Processes: Tasks that once required significant manual inputs are now performed automatically, thereby increasing accuracy and consistency in reports.
3. Reduction in Dictation: The engine allows healthcare professionals to dictate less, even while managing a larger volume of data.

Successful Clinical Scenarios

The effectiveness of the Dynamic Content engine is evidenced by successful applications in various clinical scenarios, such as:

• - Vascular Reporting: Radiologists can now calculate and report the maximum peak systolic velocity across multiple measurements, along with associated locations.
• - OB/GYN Reporting: The feature supports formatting and combining multiple nodule or fibroid measurements using practical logic rules.
• - Bone Density Analysis: Evaluation of DEXA readings along with patient age can now lead to informed recommendations for clinical next steps.
• - Lab Results Integration: The system allows automatic retrieval of the latest lab values from Electronic Health Records (EHR) to be included directly in radiology reports.

As stated by Chris Barnett, President and Co-Founder of Altamont Software, "The benefits of saving radiologists' time by reducing manual steps have never been more critical. Passport SR's new Dynamic Content capabilities enable radiologists to dictate less, despite having to digest increasing amounts of data." This sentiment underscores the urgency for professional tools that can enhance efficiency in a system that is critical for patient healthcare.

Upcoming Demonstrations

Altamont Software plans to showcase Passport SR featuring the Dynamic Content engine, along with its entire suite of DICOM SR and AI-based report integration capabilities, at the upcoming Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) Annual Meeting. Attendees will have the chance to see firsthand how this advanced technology can transform radiological practices. The company invites interested parties to visit Booth #7808 located in the North Hall or to schedule time at RSNA to discover how Altamont Software can bolster radiologist productivity while also reinforcing AI strategies.
