    Abstract: A non-transitory computer readable medium (26s) stores instructions executable by at least one electronic processor (14s) to perform a remote assistance method (100). The method includes: providing a remote assistance interface (28, 28′) via which a local operator (LO) can receive remote assistance during a medical imaging examination performed by the local operator using a medical imaging device (2); prior to or during the medical imaging examination, identifying a handoff (40) from a first remote expert (RE) assigned to provide the remote assistance during the medical imaging examination to a second remote expert (SRE); generating a representation (46) containing information about the medical imaging examination; transferring the representation containing information about the medical imaging examination to the second remote expert; and reassigning the medical imaging examination from the first remote expert to the second remote expert.

    Abstract: A method (100) of analyzing a medical report (34) presenting clinical content determined from one or more images (38) includes: extracting a text embedding (54) from the medical report: extracting an image embedding (52) from the one or more images; determining one or more content feature vectors from the text embedding and the image embedding; determining one or more style feature vectors from the text embedding; and at least one of: extracting one or more clinical findings contained in the medical report using the one or more content feature vectors; scoring the style of the medical report using the one or more style feature vectors; and/or converting the medical report to a target style using the one or more content feature vectors and one or more target style feature vectors different from the determined one or more style feature vectors.

    Abstract: A non-transitory computer readable medium (26s) stores instructions executable by at least one electronic processor (14s) to perform a method (100) of preparing for an upcoming medical imaging examination. The method includes receiving information about the upcoming medical imaging examination; receiving patient data from a patient monitoring device (40) associated with a patient who is to undergo the upcoming medical imaging examination; analyzing the received patient data based on information about the upcoming medical imaging examination; determine one or more indicators of a potential issue with the upcoming medical imaging examination based on the comparison of the received patient data with the information about the upcoming medical imaging examination; and outputting a warning (46) indicative of the determined one or more indicators of the issue with the medical imaging examination.

    Abstract: An apparatus (10) for assessing radiologist performance includes at least one electronic processor (20) programmed to: during reading sessions in which a user is logged into a user interface (UI) (27), present (98) medical imaging examinations (31) via the UI, receive examination reports on the presented medical imaging examinations via the UI, and file the examination reports; and perform a tracking method (102, 202) including at least one of: (i) computing (204) concurrence scores (34) quantifying concurrence between clinical findings contained in the examination reports and corresponding computer-generated clinical findings for the presented medical imaging examinations which are generated by a computer aided diagnostic (CAD) process miming as a background process during the reading sessions; and/or (ii) determining (208) reading times (38) for the presented medical imaging examinations wherein the reading time for each presented medical imaging examination is the time interval between a start of the presenting of the medical imaging examination via the user interface and the filing of the corresponding examination report; and generating (104) at least one time-dependent user performance metric (36) for the user based on the computed concurrence scores and/or the determined reading times.

    Abstract: An apparatus (10) provides remote assistance to a local operator of a medical imaging device (2) disposed in a medical imaging device bay (3) via a communication link (14) from a remote location (4) that is remote from the medical imaging device bay to the medical imaging device bay. The apparatus includes a workstation (12) disposed at the remote location including at least one workstation display (24). At least one electronic processor (20) is programmed to, over the course of a medical imaging examination performed using the medical imaging device: extract successive image frames from video (17) or screen sharing (18) of a controller display (24′) of the medical imaging device; screen-scrape information related to the medical imaging examination from the successive image frames over the course of the medical imaging examination; maintain status information on the medical imaging examination at least in part using the screen-scraped information; and output an alert (30) perceptible at the remote location when the status information on the medical imaging examination satisfies an alert criterion.
