Radiology informatics

Hi Joseph,
 
How are you doing?  We had a fascinating week at the RSNA this year discussing 
the role of open source.  If you get a chance i would like to sync up with what 
you are doing. 
 
Please use my new email at [EMAIL PROTECTED] . this one is mostly cobwebs.

I second Gary's enthusiasmI will bring Dasher up next week at our
WorldVistA community meeting in Washington DC. It would be a great
enhancement to VistA's user interface!

Haven't tried it yet, but will.

It seems from the demo to be a little difficult if you have to navigate
the
whole universe of a language.

Has anyone trained it on their own clinical notes and then tried to
write a
note?

It seems like you could customize the predictive engine by substituting
meta-regions that correspond to sections of a progress note or complete
health exam. For example instead of an alphabet, present the main
headings
of a note. Chose a heading like Family History. Within that the universe

would be very limited and navigation very obvious and quick. Once an
family
member was picked, then common familial illness would populate the right

side of the screen. Any time a free text was needed a tunnel into
classic
Dasher could be used to create text. An escape area would take the user
back
to Family history level to chose another ancestor and then dive back
into
organized text. When done with Family history the escape would lead to
the
main level where social history could be chosen.

Maybe it is just late at night, but this seems like a potentially
revolutionary tool for handhelds and an interesting idea for note
creation
on desktops.

Is someone working on a medical version?
