To Err Is Human, to Correct Divine: The Emergence of Technology-Based Communication Systems
Abstract
An increasing emphasis has been placed on the importance of timely communication of imaging results, especially to the extent that clinical management decisions are modified by the information. Various methods of transmitting results have been proposed and developing technology can now be applied to helping to ensure the timely receipt of such results in a busy clinical environment. Stratifying levels of urgency, ensuring redundancy of potential recipients of such information, and the ability to assess desired benchmarks are objectives that involve many stakeholders, including radiologists, treating physicians, and institutions. An enterprise approach to this challenge, including commercially available systems, offers a potentially cost-effective solution that addresses both risk management and quality improvement goals.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
