RSNA: Nuance pairs workflow and communication tools

Nuance Communications launched PowerScribe 360, a radiology reporting and communications platform that combines the capabilities of PowerScribe and RadWhere into one technology, at the 96th annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA), held in Chicago Nov. 28 to Dec. 3.

PowerScribe 360 introduces productivity, communication and administration features in the Dragon Medical speech recognition engine for radiology reporting and provides options for critical test result management, external data capture, multi-site workflow support and structured reporting.

PowerScribe 360 incorporates radiology-specific language models, and the platform comes standard with a library of structured report templates including the RSNA’s best practice radiology templates, auto-formatting and voice commands.
