Summary

At the Department of Radiology of the University of Graz, radiologic reports are stored in a direct-access data base in clear text. The data-base is used primarily to get immediate information about previous examinations of the patient. It is also used for scientific evaluations and the provision of feedback information. All these functions are available on CRT-devices on or near the examination rooms for 24 hours a day. Data are collected by the normal routine of dictating and typing reports without a need for additional work or coding.
