FastFindings Reporter Pro Enables Voice Command Macro Reporting -

StructuRad LLC, today announced the availability of FastFindings Reporter(TM) and FastFindings Reporter Pro(TM) as affordable solutions for radiology reporting. FastFindings Reporter Pro represents a breakthrough speech recognition paradigm for making Radiology reporting faster, easier and more accurate.

A single-user Windows PC application, FastFindings Pro enables out-of-the-box speech recognition for voice-enabled macro reporting for a retail price of $595. FastFindings Reporter standard edition allows radiologists and transcriptionists to take advantage of advanced technologies such as FastMacros, specifically designed for Radiology reporting productivity at only $295. Unlike a word processor, it is uniquely designed to easily create repetitive reports, such as normal and near normal reports from macros and or a patent-pending knowledge base. The new FastFindings Reporter products are flexible and adaptable to most radiology reporting requirements and enable radiologists to easily create final reports using any combination of FastMacros(TM), text input, Direct Reporting(TM), digital voice recorder and speech recognition.

"With FastFindings Reporter, we've shown our doctors are able to get reports into our RIS system in a fraction of the time that it would have traditionally taken, and really helped us work through our backlog of reports," says Dr. Andrew Deutsch, Medical Director, Antelope Valley Hospital and Imaging Center. "The integration of voice recognition as a user interface is really a paradigm breakthrough in terms of how Radiologists view various reporting alternatives," says Dr. David Weiss, Director, Section Head Radiology Imaging, Geisinger Medical Center.

FastFindings Pro contains powerful command and control voice recognition features to recall commonly used macros and or voice recognition for hands free reporting. Voice dictation can be accomplished with included voice recorder or with Dragon NaturallySpeaking(R) (using Dragon NaturallySpeaking(R) purchased separately). FastFindings Reporter is designed for radiologists and transcriptionists who want to create reports directly using macros and knowledge base selections via keyboard and mouse.

Both products create final reports can be easily exported into other RIS or HIS systems and a powerful macro management feature allows for the creation, modification, and management of standard and custom macros for speed and efficiently.
