Abstract
En 中文
Rationale and objectives: This study aims to validate a new radiology reporting style using eye tracking to maximize radiologist interpretation time, increase accuracy, and minimize dictation time, ultimately providing a clinically relevant, concise, and accurate reporting style.Materials and methods: The positive findings only dictation style using a podcast stand-alone microphone (n = 76) was compared with the standard check-list dictation style using a handheld microphone (n = 81). Experienced board-certified radiologists used each style for various imaging modalities. The number of voice recognition corrections per case was tracked. Eye-tracking glasses captured eye movement to document dictation, inter-pretation, and total examination times. This device also generated thermal heat maps for each style. The sta-tistical difference between the two methods was assessed via descriptive analysis and inferential statistics.Results: Eye tracking revealed that the new positive findings dictation style led to a noteworthy shift in radiol-ogists' visual attention, with reduced heat map overlaying the reporting software compared to the standard check-list style, indicating greater focus on medical images. Cases with at least one voice recognition correction significantly decreased using the positive findings dictation style versus the standard check-list style (5.26 % vs. 14.81 %; p = 0.0240). The positive findings dictation style significantly decreased average dictation time (16.54 s [s] vs. 29.39 s; p = 0.0003) without impacting interpretation time (70.90 s vs. 64.30 s; p = 0.7799) or total examination time (87.45 s vs. 93.69 s; p = 0.3756) compared to the standard style.Conclusion: Positive findings only dictation style significantly decreased dictation time and enhanced accuracy without compromising total interpretation time.
