Neuradicon: Operational representation learning of neuroimaging reports.

Journal: Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
PMID: 39951958

Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Radiological reports typically summarize the content and interpretation of imaging studies in unstructured form that precludes quantitative analysis. This limits the monitoring of radiological services to throughput undifferentiated by content, impeding specific, targeted operational optimization. Here we present Neuradicon, a natural language processing (NLP) framework for quantitative analysis of neuroradiological reports.
