Radiology reports are likely to be more useful if they contain appropriate graphic material. Diagnostic conclusions and recommendations become more convincing and useful when the clinician personally can review the image on which these are based. Modern desk-top publishing techniques make it possible to incorporate radiographic images, appropriately selected and annotated, as part of the radiology report. It is believed that such illustrated reports would be preferred by referring physicians, notwithstanding a significant loss of image detail. A survey of these referring physicians was carried out to determine whether this hypothesis was correct.
如果放射学报告包含适当的图像资料,可能会更有用。当临床医生能够亲自查看作为诊断结论和建议依据的图像时,这些结论和建议会变得更有说服力且更有用。现代桌面出版技术使得将经过适当选择和标注的放射影像纳入放射学报告成为可能。尽管图像细节会有显著损失,但据信这种配有插图的报告将更受转诊医生的青睐。对这些转诊医生进行了一项调查,以确定这一假设是否正确。
